MORC2 directs transcription-dependent CpG methylation of human LINE-1 transposons in early neurodevelopment

Fereshteh Dorazehi, Caterina Francesconi, Ninoslav Pandiloski, Laura Castilla‐Vallmanya, Anna Albecka, Symela Koutounidou, Sivani Bala Mohan, Anita Adami, Angelos Katsikas, Jana Matijević, Ofelia Karlsson, Carrie Davis-Hansson, Jonas Johansson, Yorgo Modis, Johan Jakobsson, Christopher H. Douse

This study shows MORC2 regulates CpG methylation of active LINE-1 retrotransposons during human neurodevelopment, similar to the piRNA pathway in the germline.
