Schizophrenia risk from locus-specific human endogenous retroviruses
2019-10-08
Abstract excerpt
Schizophrenia genome-wide association studies highlight the substantial contribution of risk attributed to the non-coding genome where human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are encoded. These ancient viral elements have previously been overlooked in genetic and transcriptomic studies due to their poor annotation and repetitive nature. Using a new, comprehensive HERV annotation, we found that the fraction of the ge...
