by Aurélie Hua-Van and Pierre Capy, explores the role of transposable elements (TEs) in the evolution of genomes across various organisms. It examines both eukaryotic and prokaryotic TEs, detailing their structures, mechanisms, and evolutionary impacts. The book also discusses the implications of TE movements in human diseases, including cancers and metabolic disorders, and their effects on gene expression and chromosomal rearrangements. Aimed at researchers and students in genetics, genomics, and evolutionary biology, it provides a comprehensive overview of the diversity and significance of TEs in genomic evolution. |
