Co-option of a non-retroviral endogenous viral element in planthoppers
Nature Communications, 2023 Non-retroviral endogenous viral elements (nrEVEs) are widely dispersed throughout the genomes of eukaryotes. Although nrEVEs are known to be involved in host antiviral immunity, it remains an open question whether they can be domesticated as functional ...

Transactivation of elements in the human endogenous retrovirus W family by viral infection [PDF]
Retrovirology, 2006 Background Aberrant expression of human endogenous retrovirus (HERV) elements in the W family has previously been associated with schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis and preeclampsia.

Control of RNA viruses in mosquito cells through the acquisition of vDNA and endogenous viral elements [PDF]
eLife, 2019 Aedes aegypti transmit pathogenic arboviruses while the mosquito itself tolerates the infection. We examine a piRNA-based immunity that relies on the acquisition of viral derived cDNA (vDNA) and how this pathway discriminates between self and non-self ...

Endogenous Viral Elements in Shrew Genomes Provide Insights into Pestivirus Ancient History. [PDF]
Mol Biol Evol, 2022 Abstract As viral genomic imprints in host genomes, endogenous viral elements (EVEs) shed light on the deep evolutionary history of viruses, ancestral host ranges, and ancient viral–host interactions. In addition, they may provide crucial information for calibrating viral evolutionary timescales.

Endogenous viral elements: insights into data availability and accessibility. [PDF]
Virus EvolAbstract Endogenous viral elements (EVEs) are remnants of viral genetic material endogenized into the host genome. They have, in the last decades, attracted attention for their role as potential contributors to pathogenesis, drivers of selective advantage for the host, and genomic remnants of ancient viruses.

The evolution of endogenous viral elements. [PDF]
Cell Host Microbe, 2011 Endogenous retroviruses are a common component of the eukaryotic genome, and their evolution and potential function have attracted considerable interest. More surprising was the recent discovery that eukaryotic genomes contain sequences from RNA viruses that have no DNA stage in their life cycle. Similarly, several single-stranded DNA viruses have left

Non-retroviral Endogenous Viral Elements in Tephritid Fruit Flies Reveal Former Viral Infections Not Related to Known Circulating Viruses. [PDF]
Microb Ecol, 2023 AbstractA wide variety of insect-specific non-retroviral RNA viruses specifically infect insects. During viral infection, fragments of viral sequences can integrate into the host genomes creating non-retroviral endogenous viral elements (nrEVEs). Although the exact function of nrEVEs is so far unknown, some studies suggest that nrEVEs may interfere ...
