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 Missing Link between Retrotransposons and Retroviruses
The origin and deep evolution of retroviruses remain largely unclear. It has been proposed that retroviruses might have originated from a Ty3/Gypsy retrotransposon, but all known Ty3/Gypsy retrotransposons are only distantly related to retroviruses ...

Sensing pathogens is an essential first step in the initiation of a host response to infection. In this issue of Immunity, Kane et al. (2011) used mouse models to demonstrate that Toll-like receptor 7 is required for the generation of an antibody response to infection by retroviruses.

Structural Analysis of Retrovirus Assembly and Maturation
Retroviruses have a very complex and tightly controlled life cycle which has been studied intensely for decades. After a virus enters the cell, it reverse-transcribes its genome, which is then integrated into the host genome, and subsequently all ...

Endogenous retroviruses of non-avian/mammalian vertebrates illuminate diversity and deep history of retroviruses. [PDF]
The deep history and early diversification of retroviruses remains elusive, largely because few retroviruses have been characterized in vertebrates other than mammals and birds.

The extraordinary evolutionary history of the reticuloendotheliosis viruses [PDF]
The reticuloendotheliosis viruses (REVs) comprise several closely related amphotropic retroviruses isolated from birds. These viruses exhibit several highly unusual characteristics that have not so far been adequately explained, including their extremely
