         Description
In this study authors present an evidence for L1 insertions across all studies to date that are not represented in the reference human genome assembly, many of which appear to be specific to populations or groups of populations, particularly Africans. Additionally, a cross-comparison of several studies showed that, on average, 27% of surveyed non-reference insertions are present in only one study, indicating the low frequency of many RIPs.
