Remnants of an Ancient Deltaretrovirus in the Genomes of Horseshoe Bats (Rhinolophidae) [PDF]
Endogenous retrovirus (ERV) sequences provide a rich source of information about the long-term interactions between retroviruses and their hosts. However, most ERVs are derived from a subset of retrovirus groups, while ERVs derived from certain other ...

A dose-effect relationship for deltaretrovirus-dependent leukemogenesis in sheep [PDF]
Background Retrovirus-induced tumors develop in a broad range of frequencies and after extremely variable periods of time, from only a few days to several decades, depending mainly on virus type.

Discovery of an endogenous Deltaretrovirus in the genome of long-fingered bats (Chiroptera: Miniopteridae) [PDF]
Significance Retroviruses copy their RNA genome into complementary DNA, which is then inserted into the host chromosomal DNA as an obligatory part of their life cycle. Such integrated viral sequences, called proviruses, are passed to the infected cell progeny on cellular division.

Capture in the metabolic arena: co-selection of gamma and deltaretrovirus envelope glycoproteins and their receptors [PDF]
Although all infectious and replication-competent retroviruses harbor an env gene, the origin of env remains unknown except for that of a few invertebrate retroviruses. It is generally admitted that infectious retroviruses have evolved from endogenous viral retrotransposons by insertion of an ''external'' gene that encodes for a fusion glycoprotein ...

North American Big Brown Bats (
Bats are the reservoir for a large number of zoonotic viruses, including members of Coronaviridae (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus [SARS-CoV] and SARS-CoV-2), Paramyxoviridae (Hendra and Nipah viruses), Rhabdoviridae (rabies virus), and ...

Deltaretroviruses have circulated since at least the Paleogene and infected a broad range of mammalian species [PDF]
The Deltaretrovirus genus of retroviruses (family Retroviridae) includes the human T cell leukemia viruses and bovine leukemia virus (BLV). Relatively little is known about the biology and evolution of these viruses, because only a few species have been ...

Virus de la leucemia bovina: entre la producción animal y la salud humana
El virus de la leucemia bovina (BLV) es un retrovirus del género deltaretrovirus, el cual infecta los linfocitos B y genera una expansión policlonal. En los rumiantes se integra como provirus al genoma del huésped y genera una infección de por vida.
