Retroelements: propagation and adaptation.

Virus genes - 1 Jan 1995

Hull R, Covey S N

Abstract excerpt

Retroelements are genetic entities that exist in both DNA and RNA forms generated by cyclic alternation of transcription and reverse transcription. They have in common a genetic core (the gag-pol core), encoding conserved functions of a structural protein and a replicase. These are supplemented with a variety of cis-acting nucleic acid sequences controlling transcription and reverse transcription. Most...
