The Alu repeats comprise more than 10% of the human genome. They spread in the genome by retrotransposition. As a response to this invasion, organisms developed mechanisms to preserve the integrity of their genome, such as RNA editing. The most abundant type of editing in mammals is A-to-I editing where the ADAR proteins transform adenosine into inosine and targets mainly Alu elements in human. Editing of the Alu elements leads to their sequestration in the nucleus and mutates their internal POLIII promoter and their poly-A tail, thus preventing their subsequent transposition. In the first part of this study, we challenged the view that Alu elements are dormant occupant of the genome by characterizing their activity. Deep-sequencing data an...
