Characterization of Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus γ pro-pol Nucleotide Sequences [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2002 ABSTRACT Endogenous retroviral sequences in the pig genome (PERV) represent a potential infectious risk in xenotransplantation. All known infectious PERV have been asssigned to the PERV γ1 family, consisting of the subfamilies A, B, and C.

Computational Evaluation of the Strict Master and Random Template Models of Endogenous Retrovirus Evolution. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences that are able to replicate and move within and between host genomes. Their mechanism of replication is also shared with endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), which are also a type of TE that represent an ancient ...
