Human Endogenous Retrovirus K Rec forms a Regulatory Loop with MITF that Opposes the Progression of Melanoma to an Invasive Stage
The HML2 subfamily of HERV-K (henceforth HERV-K) represents the most recently endogenized retrovirus in the human genome. While the products of certain HERV-K genomic copies are expressed in normal tissues, they are upregulated in several pathological conditions, including various tumors. It remains...
