Human endogenous retrovirus HERV-K(HML-2) encodes a stable signal peptide with biological properties distinct from Rec

BACKGROUND: The human endogenous retrovirus HERV-K(HML-2) family is associated with testicular germ cell tumors (GCT). Various HML-2 proviruses encode viral proteins such as Env and Rec. RESULTS: We describe here that HML-2 Env gives rise to a 13 kDa signal peptide (SP) that harbors a different C-te...
