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),...

A Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus-Based Retroviral Vector Pseudotyped by the Insect Retroviral gypsy Envelope Can Infect Drosophila Cells

Teysset, Laure, Burns, Jane C., Shike, Hiroko, Sullivan, Barbara L., Bucheton, Alain, Terzian, Christophe

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

Delaunay, Jérôme, Le Mée, Gwenn, Ezzeddine, Nader, Labesse, Gilles, Terzian, Christophe, Capri, Michèle, ...

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 the...

Comparative and functional studies of Drosophila species invasion by the gypsy endogenous retrovirus.

Mejlumian, Lucine, Pélisson, Alain, Bucheton, Alain, Terzian, Christophe

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

Induction of Mutations in Drosophila melanogaster gypsy Retroelements by Modulation of Intracellular Deoxynucleoside Triphosphate Pools In Vivo▿

Terzian, Christophe, Henry, Michel, Meyerhans, Andreas, Wain-Hobson, Simon, Vartanian, Jean-Pierre

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...
