Abstract excerpt
Prototypic elements of a novel human endogenous retrovirus (HERV) family were identified and cloned from a human genomic library by the use of a pol fragment, HML-6, related to type A and type B retroviruses and class II HERVs. Out of 39 polhybridizing clones, five contained structures of full-length retroviral proviruses, with regions showing similarity to gag, pol and env, flanked by long terminal repeats...
