Endogenous Viral Elements in Ixodid Tick Genomes [PDF]
Viruses, 2023 The documentation of endogenous viral elements (EVEs; virus-derived genetic material integrated into the genome of a nonviral host) has offered insights into how arthropods respond to viral infection via RNA interference pathways.

CAULIFINDER: a pipeline for the automated detection and annotation of caulimovirid endogenous viral elements in plant genomes [PDF]
Mobile DNA, 2022 Plant, animal and protist genomes often contain endogenous viral elements (EVEs), which correspond to partial and sometimes entire viral genomes that have been captured in the genome of their host organism through a variety of integration mechanisms ...

Shrimp Parvovirus Circular DNA Fragments Arise From Both Endogenous Viral Elements and the Infecting Virus [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Some insects use endogenous reverse transcriptase (RT) to make variable viral copy DNA (vcDNA) fragments from viral RNA in linear (lvcDNA) and circular (cvcDNA) forms. The latter form is easy to extract selectively.

Endogenous viral elements in animal genomes. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2010 Integration into the nuclear genome of germ line cells can lead to vertical inheritance of retroviral genes as host alleles. For other viruses, germ line integration has only rarely been documented.

Parvovirus-derived endogenous viral elements in two South American rodent genomes. [PDF]
J Virol, 2014 We describe endogenous viral elements (EVEs) derived from parvoviruses (family <i>Parvoviridae</i>) in the long-tailed chinchilla (<i>Chinchilla lanigera</i>) and degu (<i>Octodon degus</i>) genomes.

Endogenous viral elements reveal associations between a non-retroviral RNA virus and symbiotic dinoflagellate genomes [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2023 Endogenous viral elements (EVEs) offer insight into the evolutionary histories and hosts of contemporary viruses. This study leveraged DNA metagenomics and genomics to detect and infer the host of a non-retroviral dinoflagellate-infecting +ssRNA virus ...

Comprehensive characterization of non-retroviral endogenous viral elements in the rice pest Chilo suppressalis [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Non-retroviral endogenous viral elements (nrEVEs) are “molecular fossils” in eukaryotes that offer key molecular evidence into virus-host coevolution, particularly in insects.

Endogenous viral elements constitute a complementary source of antigens for personalized cancer vaccines [PDF]
npj VaccinesPersonalized cancer vaccines (PCVs) largely leverage neoantigens arising from somatic mutations, limiting their application to patients with relatively high tumor mutational burden (TMB).

Discovery of novel non-retroviral endogenous viral elements reveals their long-term integration history in spiders [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsEndogenous viral elements (EVEs) are widespread in the genomes of various organisms and have played a crucial role in evolution. Historically, research on EVEs primarily focused on those derived from retroviruses; however, the significance of non ...
