putative endogenous filovirus vp35-like protein potentially functions as an ifn antagonist but not a polymerase cofactor. | it has been proposed that some non-retroviral rna virus genes are integrated into vertebrate genomes. endogenous filovirus-like elements (efls) have been discovered in some mammalian genomes. however, their potential roles in ebolavirus infection are unclear. a filovirus vp35-like element (mlefl35) is found in the little brown bat (myotis lucifugus) genome. putative mlefl35-derived protein (mlefl35p) contains nearly full-length amino acid sequences corresponding to ebolavirus vp35. ebola virus v ... | 2017 | 29040311 |
