L1 replicates in germ line cells and early embryos, causing genetic diversity and defects, but can be active in some somatic stem cells, tumors and during aging. L1 encodes two proteins essential for retrotransposition: ORF2p, a reverse transcriptase that contains an endonuclease domain, and ORF1p, a coiled coil mediated homo trimer, which functions as a nucleic acid chaperone. Both proteins contain highly conserved domains and preferentially bind their encoding transcript to form an L1 ribonucleoprotein (RNP), which mediates retrotransposition. However, the coiled coil has periodically undergone episodes of substantial amino acid replacement to the extent that a given L1 family can concurrently express multiple ORF1s that differ in the sequence of their coiled coils.

We investigated if TE content correlates with family level net diversification rates and found support for a weak negative correlation. Further, we demonstrated that TE proportion correlates with genome size, but not to the proportion of short tandem repeats (STRs), which implies independent evolutionary paths. Marine and freshwater fish had large differences in STR content, with the most extreme propagation detected in the genomes of codfish species and Atlantic herring.
