Identification and characterization of functional and trans-dominant negative HERV-K (HML-2) Rec proteins encoded in the human genome
2025-07-07
Abstract excerpt
Human Endogenous Retroviruses K (HERV-K) of the HML-2 subgroup are the most recently integrated and biologically active retroviral elements within the human genome. The HERV-K Rec protein, a functional homolog of HIV Rev and HTLV Rex, is necessary for the nuclear export of viral mRNAs with retained introns. However, the diversity of Rec proteins encoded in the human genome and their functional capacities have rema...
