ERVmap analysis reveals genome-wide transcription of human endogenous retroviruses

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are integrated retroviral elements that make up 8% of the human genome. However, the impact of ERVs on human health and disease is not well understood. ...

Epigenetic interplay between mouse endogenous retroviruses and host genes

To better understand the role of DNA methylation in the relationship between transposable elements and genes, we assessed the methylation state of mouse endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) located near genes ...
Spreading from methylated ERV copies to nearby genes was rarely observed, with the regions between the ERVs and genes apparently acting as a boundary, enriched in H3K4me3 and CTCF, which possibly protects ...
