ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Retroviridae 2021 [PDF]
Viruses in the family Retroviridae are found in a wide variety of vertebrate hosts. Enveloped virions are 80-100 nm in diameter with an inner core containing the viral genome and replicative enzymes. Core morphology is often characteristic for viruses within the same genus.

Relationships of gag-pol diversity between
Background The origin of vertebrate retroviruses (Retroviridae) is yet to be thoroughly investigated, but due to their similarity and identical gag-pol (and env) genome structure, it is accepted that they evolve from Ty3/Gypsy LTR retroelements the ...

Simple (Wrong) Models for Complex Trees: A Case from Retroviridae [PDF]
Although the use of adequate models of evolution should improve the accuracy of phylogenetic inference (Leitner, Kumar, and Albert 1997; Sullivan and Swofford 1997; Cunningham, Zhu, and Hillis 1998), computer simulation studies have shown that under ...

The study of homology between tumor progression genes and members of retroviridae as a tool to predict target-directed therapy failure [PDF]
Oncogenes are the primary candidates for target-directed therapy, given that they are involved directly in the progression and resistance of tumors. However, the appearance of point mutations can hinder the treatment of patients with these new molecules,
