Alu element
Videos
An Alu element is a short stretch of DNA originally characterized by the action of the Arthrobacter luteus restriction endonuclease. Alu elements are the most abundant transposable elements in the hum
Karyotype from a female human lymphocyte (46, XX). Chromosomes were hybridized with a probe for Alu elements (green) and counterstained with TOPRO-3 (red). Alu elements were used as a marker for chromosomes and chromosome bands rich in genes.

Euarchontoglires, synonymous with Supraprimates, is a clade and a superorder of placental mammals, the living members of which belong to one of the five following groups: rodents, lagomorphs, treeshre
Alu element
…Alu elements are not highly conserved within primate genomes, as only a minority have retained activity, and originated in the genome of an ancestor of Supraprimates. Alu insertions have been implicated in several inherited human diseases and in various forms of cancer…
