Once dismissed as “junk,” pieces of ancient viral DNA in our genome are now known to help control which genes are turned on or off.

【CNMO科技消息】据外媒报道，人类基因组中约8%的序列源自数百万年前感染祖先的远古病毒，这些曾被视为"垃圾DNA"的片段，如今被证实能调控基因开关。由麦吉尔大学和京都大学领导的国际研究团队发现，这些内源性逆转录病毒（ERVs）可细分为四组功能性序列 ...

一段被遗忘的病毒DNA链，为人类和黑猩猩所独有，可能正在干细胞中操控基因开关。埋藏在我们DNA中的古老病毒代码，曾一度被视为“垃圾”，如今却可能在幕后操控着基因。麦吉尔大学和京都大学的科学家在人类基因组中发现了被忽视的病毒序列，这些序列可能在调节基因活性方面起着关键作用。研究团队采用一种追溯其进化史的新方 ...

Buried in our DNA lies ancient viral code once dismissed as junk, and now it might be pulling the genetic strings. McGill ...
