Reactivation of an errantivirus in <i>Drosophila</i> ovarian somatic tissue: from germline invasion to taming

2022-08-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Most Drosophila transposable elements (TEs) are LTR retrotransposons, some of which belong to the genus Errantivirus and share structural and functional characteristics with vertebrate endogenous retroviruses (ERVs). These virus-derived elements occupy a large part of the genome, but it is unclear whether and how they can be reactivated and if they retain their replication capacity. We created co...
