Genome-wide identification and comparative analysis of endogenous retroviruses across five breed-representative pig assemblies
2026-07-23
Abstract excerpt
Porcine xenotransplantation offers a promising solution to human organ shortages, yet cross-species transmission of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) remains a major safety barrier. Current risk assessments predominantly rely on a single reference genome, creating a distinct blind spot regarding ERV diversity and structural variation across diverse genetic backgrounds. We profiled ERV loci across five chromosome-leve...
