Fig. 5

Catarrhini ERV-W sequences lacking the pre-gag portion. Multiple sequence alignment, chromosomal bands and genomic coordinates (as referred to GRCh38/hg38 genome assembly) of ERV-W processed pseudogenes in which the pre-gag sequence is absent entirely. Sequence differences compared to the HERV17 sequence are indicated. Numbers of rulers refer to nt positions for HERV17 and the multiple alignment. The pre-gag region is indicated for the HERV17 sequence. a based on a classification reported in [14]. b Most basal species with orthologous locus
