Identification of the distribution of human endogenous retroviruses K (HML-2) by PCR-based target enrichment sequencing

Abstract Background Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs), suspected to be transposition-defective, may reshape the transcriptional network of the human genome by regulatory elements distributed in their long terminal repeats (LTRs). HERV-K (HML-2), the most preserved group with the least number of...
