Human-specific HERV-K LTRs as an approach to the role of mobile genetic elements in neuropsychiatric disease

Long terminal repeats (LTRs) of the human endogenous retrovirus K family (HERV-K) have been found to be coexpressed with sequences of genes closely located nearby. It has been suggested that the HERV-K LTR elements have contributed to structural change in the genome in human evolution and to genetic...
