FIG. 1.

Maps of HERV-K14 ORFs as generated from fully translatable consensus sequences. (Top) HERV-K14I ORF maps. The variant without env is depicted in the upper part, while the variant with a putative env gene is shown in the lower part. (Bottom) HERV-K14CI ORF map. The locations of retroviral gag, pro, pol, and env reading frames are shown, as well as the locations of typical protein domains. LTR14C, associated with HERV-K14CI, is included in the bottom panel. LTRs were omitted in the top panel, as HERV-K14I is associated with three distinct LTR families (see the text). The scales are in kilobases.
