Abstract excerpt
Almost 10% of the human genome consists of DNA sequences that share homology with retroviruses. These sequences, which represent a stable component of the human genome (although some may retain the ability to transpose), remain poorly understood. We used degenerate primers specific to the two conserved regions (boxes 4 and 5) of the retroviral pol gene, common to all retroviruses, and PCR-amplified related...
