INVITATION TO JUMPING GENES. “Thus, responses to stress—whether from pathogens, environmental extremes, or damage to the genetic apparatus—evoke not just a transcriptional response, but also a profound and to some extent heritable change in the epigenetic framework. Such changes can loosen the epigenetic constraints on transposons, allowing stress-inducible TEs to propagate stress-inducible promoters to other genes through transposition.”
