Comparative analysis of pre-gag portions of gammaretroviruses. Panel A: multiple alignment of the nucleotide sequence between 5’LTR (blue annotations) and gag gene (red annotations) of gammaretroviral HERV groups. Proviral reference sequences were retrieved from different sources, as indicated in the table below. Other annotations are referred to the identified intron: splice donor and acceptor sites (green), pyrimidine rich region (yellow), branch site (violet). Panel B: table reporting the characteristics of the sequences analyzed, including reference name/accession number, source, genus of belonging, nucleotide positions for 5’LTR and gag genes and length of the region between them (in nucleotides). Exogenous species are marked with an asterisk
