The Evolutionary Dynamics of Human Endogenous Retroviral Families
Abstract
The capacity to integrate into the chromosomal DNA of germ-line cells has endowed retroviruses with the potential to be vertically transmitted from generation to generation and eventually become fixed in the genomes of the entire population. This has been independently accomplished by several ancient retroviruses that invaded the genomes of our early and more recent primate and hominoid ancestors. Some of the inherited elements then proliferated in the genome, resulting in a number of lineages with complex phylogenetic patterns. Although the vast majority of chromosomally integrated retroelements have suffered inactivating mutations and deletions, a significant impact on various aspects of human biology has been recently revealed and evidence for the present activity of at least one human endogenous retrovirus family continues to accumulate.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
