The ancient fusogen EnvP(b)1 is expressed in human tissues and its structure informs the evolution of gammaretrovirus envelope proteins
2020-04-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Host genomes have acquired diversity from viruses through the capture of viral elements, often from endogenous retroviruses (ERVs). These viral elements contribute new transcriptional control elements and new protein encoding genes, and their refinement through evolution can generate novel physiological functions for the host. EnvP(b)1 is an endogenous retroviral envelope gene found in human and...
