Insertional Polymorphisms of Endogenous HERV-K113 and HERV-K115 Retroviruses in Breast Cancer Patients and Age-Matched Controls

1 Nov 2004

Abstract excerpt

Endogenous retroviral sequences resulting from ancient retrovirus infections of germline cells account for up to 8% of the human genome. Most of these sequences are highly truncated, have been altered by mutations, and do not encode functional genes. However, some members of the human endogenous retrovirus (HERV)-K family are remarkably intact and display high genetic homology to mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV),...
