Endogenous betaretroviruses of sheep: teaching new lessons in retroviral interference and adaptation [PDF]
The endogenous betaretroviruses of small ruminants offer an excellent model to investigate the biological relevance of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs). Approximately twenty copies of endogenous betaretroviruses (enJSRVs) are present in the genome of sheep

Vaccination directed against the human endogenous retrovirus-K envelope protein inhibits tumor growth in a murine model system [PDF]
Human endogenous retrovirus (HERV) genomes are chromosomally integrated in all cells of an individual. They are normally transcriptionally silenced and transmitted only vertically. Enhanced expression of HERV-K accompanied by the emergence of anti-HERV-K-

A paradigm for virus-host coevolution: sequential counter-adaptations between endogenous and exogenous retroviruses [PDF]
Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are remnants of ancient retroviral infections of the host germline transmitted 1vertically from generation to generation. It is hypothesized that some ERVs are used by the host as 1restriction factors to block the infection

Betaretrovirus infections in dromedary camels in Saudi Arabia
Background Retroviral infections have been reported in many species of animals, especially cattle, sheep and goats. However, there are no available reports about retrovirus infection in dromedary camels. Several dromedary camels showed visible tumor‐like
