Dot matrix comparison exemplifying a hybrid provirus between HERV-K14I and HERV17 (HERV-W) that was identified multiple times in the human genome. Provirus number 52 (see Table SA in the supplemental material) is compared to a sequence consisting of HERV-K14I (lacking env; see the text) flanked by LTR14B (bottom) and to a sequence consisting of the Repbase HERV17 sequence flanked by LTR17 (top). The locations of proviral LTRs and genes are indicated. The locations of proviral genes in HERV-17 were estimated from TBLASTN database search results. Parameters of comparisons are given in Fig. 2. The scales are in kilobases.
