Recurrent 8q13.2-13.3 microdeletions associated with Branchio-oto-renal syndrome are mediated by human endogenous retroviral (HERV) sequence blocks

BACKGROUND: Human endogenous retroviral (HERV) sequences are the remnants of ancient retroviral infection and comprise approximately 8% of the human genome. The high abundance and interspersed nature of homologous HERV sequences make them ideal substrates for genomic rearrangements. A role for HERV...
