Marine origin of retroviruses in the early Palaeozoic Era

Endogenous retroviruses are viruses that have become integrated into the genomes of their hosts. Here, the authors investigate the evolution of foamy-like endogenous retroviruses, and, by taking into account the temporal dynamics of the rate of viral evolution, suggest that retroviruses arose at lea...

Marine origin of retroviruses in the early Palaeozoic Era
description Endogenous retroviruses are viruses that have become integrated into the genomes of their hosts. Here, the authors investigate the evolution of foamy-like endogenous retroviruses, and, by taking into account the temporal dynamics of the rate of viral evolution, suggest that retroviruses arose at least 450 million years ago in marine vertebrates.
