The flamenco (flam) locus, located at 20A1-3 in the centromeric heterochromatin of the Drosophila melanogaster X chromosome, is a major regulator of the gypsy/mdg4 endogenous retrovirus. In...

We reported in our previous work that the EDEN‐dependent translational repression of maternal mRNAs was conserved between Drosophila and Xenopus. In Xenopus, this repression is achieved through...
Evolution and phylogeny of insect endogenous retroviruses (2001)
Terzian, Christophe, Pélisson, Alain, Bucheton, Alain
Abstract Background The genome of invertebrates is rich in retroelements which are structurally reminiscent of the retroviruses of vertebrates. Those containing three open reading frames (ORFs),...
Laprevotte, Ivan, Pupin, Maude, Coward, Eivind, Didier, Gilles, Terzian, Christophe, Devauchelle, Claudine, ...
Previous analyses of retroviral nucleotide sequences, suggest a so-called “scrambled duplicative stepwise molecular evolution” (many sectors with successive duplications/deletions of short and...
Evolution of the Gypsy Endogenous Retrovirus in the Drosophila melanogaster Subgroup (2000)
Terzian, Christophe, Ferraz, Concepcion, Demaille, Jacques, Bucheton, Alain
We conducted a phylogenetic survey of the endogenous retrovirus Gypsy in the eight species of the Drosophila melanogaster subgroup. A 362-bp fragment from the integrase gene (int) was amplified,...

The I factor of Drosophila melanogaster is a retrotransposon of the LINE superfamily. The I factor displays two non-overlapping open reading frames (ORFs) that have the potential to encode for a...

The gypsy element of Drosophila melanogaster is the first retrovirus identified so far in invertebrates. Previous data suggest that gypsy ENV-like ORF3 mediates viral infectivity. We have produced in...
The Drosophila Bruno paralogue Bru-3 specifically binds the EDEN translational repression element

Gypsy is an endogenous retrovirus of Drosophila melanogaster. Phylogenetic studies suggest that occasional horizontal transfer events of gypsy occur between Drosophila species. gypsy possesses...

The retroviral mutation rate is susceptible to a number of variables, including the balance between intracellular deoxynucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) pools. While this follows from tissue culture...
