Endogenous retroviruses of non-avian/mammalian vertebrates illuminate diversity and deep history of retroviruses.

PLoS pathogens - 1 Jun 2018

Xu Xiaoyu, Zhao Huayao, Gong Zhen, Han Guan-Zhu

Abstract excerpt

The deep history and early diversification of retroviruses remains elusive, largely because few retroviruses have been characterized in vertebrates other than mammals and birds. Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) documented past retroviral infections and thus provide 'molecular fossils' for studying the deep history of retroviruses. Here we perform a comprehensive phylogenomic analysis of ERVs within the genomes of...
