Sex-specific aspects of endogenous retroviral insertion and deletion
BACKGROUND: We wish to understand how sex and recombination affect endogenous retroviral insertion and deletion. While theory suggests that the risk of ectopic recombination will limit the accumulation of repetitive DNA in areas of high meiotic recombination, the experimental evidence so far has bee...
