^a‘I’ specifies primers for the 5’LTR; ‘II’ specifies primers for either the solo LTR or empty site.

^bProduct sizes were estimated using in silico PCR (UCSC Genome Browser) of primer pairs. Product sizes for alleles for the 10p12.1, 12q13.2, and 19p12b proviruses were estimated manually by adding the distances to the distance to the nearest BsrI site in the host genome regions flanking each integration site and in the respective provirus for that site.
