Structure and biochemistry-guided engineering of an all-RNA system for DNA insertion with R2 retrotransposons

Abstract R2 elements, a class of non-long terminal repeat (non-LTR) retrotransposons, have the potential to be harnessed for transgene insertion. However, efforts to achieve this are limited by our understanding of the retrotransposon mechanisms. Here, we structurally and biochemically characterize...
