The in silico identification and analysis of ancient and recent endogenous retroviruses in mammalian genomes

2015-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Recent advances in DNA sequencing technologies have led to a vast plethora of vertebrate genomes being made available for bioinformatic analysis and investigation. This has presented retrovirologists with many new opportunities to study endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) - selfish genetic element (SGEs) endogenised within the genomic DNA of their hosts. Many of these ERVs exist as molecular fossils of past germline in...
