    Roslin Institute, University of Edinburgh, Roslin, Scotland, UK
    Cell Cycle 8:2895-900. 2009
    ..If considered in sum, these findings challenge the designation of TEs as selfish and neutrally evolving genomic elements. Here, we will expand upon these themes and discuss challenges in establishing novel TE functions in vivo...
