LINE-1 activity was quantified in a large, pan-cancer dataset, finding locus-specific heterogeneity and new associations using a computational pipeline. A mathematical mediation model of p53 and L1 interactions was inferred. Somatic retrotransposition was seen in Li-Fraumeni Syndrome with heritable TP53 mutations.
