[EN]The invention relates to long interspersed DNA elements (LINE elements, SEQ ID NO 1) which code for active proteins in the transposition processes thereof and which present RNase H (SEQ ID NO 2) enzyme activity. The LINE elements are found in eukaryotic organisms and, in particular, in humans and also in Trypanosoma cruzi. Said LINE elements can comprise certain modifications that ensure that the RNase H activity is retained. The invention is suitable for use in all biotechnological techniques that require an enzyme with RNase H activity, e.g.: in cDNA gene library generation; in RNA protection analyses; in inhibition of the expression of specific proteins by means of antisense tests; or as a target for pharmaceutical products. [ES]El objeto de la presente invención lo constituyen elementos de DNA largos dispersos (elementos LINE, SEQ ID NO 1) que codifican proteínas activas en sus propios procesos de transposición y que presentan actividad enzimática RNasa H (SEQ ID NO 2). Los elementos LINE se encuentran en organismos eucarióticos yen particular en humanos y también en Trypanosoma cruzi. Dichos elementos LINE, pueden incluir ciertas modificaciones que hacen que se conserve la actividad RNasa H.El objeto de la presente invencion es de aplicación en todas aquellas tecnicas biotecnológicas que requieran una enzima con actividad RNasa H, por ejemplo en generacion de genotecas de cDNA, en ensayos de proteccion de RNA, inhibicion de la expresión de proteinas específicas mediante ensayos de antisentido o como blanco de acción de fármacos.
