DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2201844119
Abstract: Significance The endogenous retrovirus (ERV) record in host DNA left by retrovirus infections in the germline over millions of years allows studies of historic retrovirus–host dynamics, which is increasingly relevant considering contemporary zoonotic viral transmissions… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/jvi.01871-17
Abstract: ABSTRACT The recent acquisition of a novel retrovirus (KoRV) by koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus) has created new opportunities for retroviral research and new challenges for koala conservation. There are currently two major subtypes of KoRV: KoRV-A,… read more here.

Cross-species transmission of an ancient endogenous retrovirus and convergent co-option of its envelope gene in two mammalian orders
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "PLOS Genetics"
DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1010458
Abstract: Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) found in vertebrate genomes are remnants of retroviral invasions of their ancestral species. ERVs thus represent molecular fossil records of ancient retroviruses and provide a unique opportunity to study viral-host interactions, including… read more here.

DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2022.2399-2406
Abstract: Background and Aim: Cats are a reservoir for Bartonella spp. infection in humans. Human bartonellosis causes disseminated inflammation to develop in immunocompromised patients, such as those infected with human immunodeficiency virus. However, the associated risks… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.919462
Abstract: The proneural transcription factor Achaete-scute complex-like 1 (Ascl1) is a major regulator of neural fate decisions, implicated both in neurogenesis and oligodendrogliogenesis. Focusing on its neurogenic activity, Ascl1 has been widely used to reprogram non-neuronal… read more here.

Functions and Regulation of Endogenous Retrovirus Elements during Zygotic Genome Activation: Implications for Improving Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer Efficiency

DOI: 10.3390/biom11060829
Abstract: Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), previously viewed as deleterious relics of ancestral retrovirus infections, are silenced in the vast majority of cells to minimize the risk of retrotransposition. Counterintuitively, bursts of ERV transcription usually occur during maternal-to-zygotic… read more here.

DOI: 10.4149/av_2022_201
Abstract: Porcine xenograft transplantation raises concerns in humans about the risk of infection with porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERV) as they are an integral part of the pig genome and are therefore very difficult to exclude. In… read more here.
