Abstract excerpt
We report the discovery of a subgroup of RTVL-H human endogenous retroviral elements, designated RTVL-Hp, that is intact in the pol region which is deleted in the vast majority of RTVL-H elements. As a consequence, RTVL-Hp elements contain critical functional domains in their pol region that other RTVL-H elements lack. We estimate that the haploid genomes of humans, apes, and Old World monkeys contain 50 to 100...
