The distribution of insertionally polymorphic endogenous retroviruses in breast cancer patients and cancer-free controls
BACKGROUND: Integration of retroviral DNA into a germ cell can result in a provirus that is transmitted vertically to the host’s offspring. In humans, such endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) comprise >8% of the genome. The HERV-K(HML-2) proviruses consist of ~90 elements related to mouse mammary tum...
