A genome-wide study of ruminants reveals two endogenous retrovirus families still active in goats
2024-06-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Endogenous retroviruses (ERV) are traces of ancestral retroviral germline infections that constitute a significant portion of mammalian genomes and function as LTR-retrotransposons. ERVs remain understudied in ruminants and usually focus on specific families, highlighting a need for comprehensive and thorough exploration of the ERV landscape in these species. <h4>Results:</h4> We characterize...
