Reactivation of an Endogenous retrovirus in Drosophila ovarian somatic tissue: from germline invasion to taming
2023-01-10
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are transposable elements (TEs) related to infectious retroviruses. In eukaryotes, ERV-related TEs occupy large parts of the genome, but it is unclear what led to such successful genome invasion. We created conditions where control of the Drosophila ZAM ERV through the piRNA pathway was abolished leading to its reactivation in real time in somatic gonadal...
