Biased nucleotide composition of the genome of HERV-K related endogenous retroviruses and its evolutionary implications.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Jan 1999

Abstract excerpt

The human genome contains a large number of sequences that belong to the HERV-K family of human endogenous retroviruses. Most of these elements are likely remnants of ancient infections by ancestral exogenous retroviruses. To obtain further insight into the evolutionary history and molecular mechanisms responsible for the diversity of the human HERV-K elements, we analyzed several aspects of their genome...
