Identification and characterization of the HERV-K (HML-8) group of human endogenous retroviruses in the genome
2022-02-10
Abstract excerpt
Human endogenous retroviruses (HERV) could vertically transmit in a Mendelian fashion and stable maintenance in the human genome which are estimated to comprise about 8%. HERVs affect human physiology and pathology based on the effect of the provirus-encoded protein or LTR elements. The characterization of the genomic distribution is an essential step to understanding the relationship between endogenous retrovirus...
