TI  - Identification and classification of endogenous retroviruses in cattle.
PG  - 582-7
AB  - The aim of this study was to identify the endogenous retrovirus (ERV) sequences 
      in a bovine genome. We subjected bovine genomic DNA to PCR with degenerate or 
      ovine ERV (OERV) family-specific primers that aimed to amplify the retroviral 
      pro/pol region. Sequence analysis of 113 clones obtained by PCR revealed that 69 
      were of retroviral origin. On the basis of the OERV classification system, these 
      clones from degenerate PCR could be divided into the beta3, gamma4, and gamma9 
      families. PCR with OERV family-specific primers revealed an additional ERV that 
      was classified into the bovine endogenous retrovirus (BERV) gamma7 family. In 
      conclusion, here we report the results of a genome scale study of the BERV. Our 
      study shows that the ERV family expansion in cattle may be somewhat limited, 
      while more diverse family members of ERVs have been reported from other 
      artiodactyls, such as pigs and sheep.
