Table 3 Number of LINEs and PLEs classified by fragment type, and putative removal process. 3′ encompasses element fragments containing a lone 3′ end, or those with 3′ ends and internal regions, and indicates premature RT dissociation or activity of cellular RNAses. 5′ encompasses element fragments containing a lone 5′ end, or those with 5′ ends and internal regions, and indicates genomic deletions
