| Abstract: | In this review, we present the data about mobile genetic elements that comprise about 45% of human genome. Along with classification and localization of the human mobile genetic elements, their role in genome functioning became the center of exclusive attention; in particular, we discussed a role of the human mobile elements in recombination, regulation of gene expression and origin of new genes. |
