EPIGENETICS AND NOVELTY. “Our results suggest that DNA methylation may play an important role in the origination and survival of MULE-derived genes through modulation of their stability and expression, which might be a general mechanism for all the TE-derived genes, thereby contributing to the evolution of gene novelty.” (MULEs = Mutator-like transposable elements; TE = transposable element).
