SARS-CoV-2-host chimeric RNA-sequencing reads do not necessarily signify virus integration into the host DNA
2021-03-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The human genome bears evidence of extensive invasion by retroviruses and other retroelements, as well as by diverse RNA and DNA viruses. High frequency of somatic integration of the RNA virus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) into the DNA of infected cells was recently suggested, partly based on the detection of chimeric RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) reads between SARS-CoV...
