We recently showed that some human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) clones were defective in neural differentiation and were marked with the activation of long term repeats (LTRs) of human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs). We herein demonstrated that these LTRs were transiently overexpressed duri...

Here we show that in neural progenitor cells (NPCs) TRIM28 silences transcription of two groups of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs): IAP1 and MMERVK10C. Derepression of ERVs in Trim28-deficient NPCs was associated with a loss of H3K9me3 and resulted in transcriptional upregulation and reverse transcri...

Background: The human genome consists of considerable portions derived from retroviruses inherited for millions of years. So-called human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are usually severely mutated, yet some coding-competent HERVs exist. The HERV-K(HML-2) group includes evolutionarily young proviru...

Human endogenous retrovirus subfamily H (HERVH) is a class of transposable elements whose members are expressed preferentially in human pluripotent stem cells. Here, we report that the long-terminal repeat regions of HERVH function as enhancers which are regulated by OCT4. Strikingly, we found that ...

The human genome consists of considerable portions derived from retroviruses typically inherited already for millions of years. So-called human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are usually severely mutated, yet some coding-competent HERV sequences exist. The HERV-K(HML-2) group includes evolutionaril...

The human genome is replete with sequences derived from foreign elements including endogenous retrovirus-like proteins of unknown function.

ARID1A loss derepresses human endogenous retrovirus-H to modulate BRD4-dependent transcription
We surveyed RNA-Seq data to identify those TEs that are transcriptionally active uniquely in human pluripotent cells. We identified one endogenous retrovirus (HERV-H) family, uniquely found in primates as being unusually abundant in the transcriptome. Poly(A)+ RNA extraction and further sequencing l...
