Overlapping enhancer/promoter and transcriptional termination signals in the lentiviral long terminal repeat [PDF]
Retrovirology, 2007 Oncoretrovirus, but not lentivirus, displays a high transcriptional readthrough activity in the 3' long terminal repeat (LTR) (Zaiss et al. J. Virol. 76, 7209–7219, 2002). However, the U3-deleted, self-inactivating (SIN) lentiviral LTR also exhibits high

Low Long Terminal Repeat (LTR)-Retrotransposon Expression in Leaves of the Marine Phanerogam Posidonia Oceanica L. [PDF]
Life, 2020 Seagrasses as Posidonia oceanica reproduce mostly by vegetative propagation, which can reduce genetic variability within populations. Since, in clonally propagated species, insurgence of genetic variability can be determined by the activity of ...

Structure of Moloney murine leukemia viral DNA: nucleotide sequence of the 5' long terminal repeat and adjacent cellular sequences. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1980 Some unintegrated and all integrated forms of murine leukemia viral DNA contain long terminal repeats (LTRs). The entire nucleotide sequence of the LTR and adjacent cellular sequences at the 5' end of a cloned integrated proviral DNA obtained from BALB ...
