Characterization and complete nucleotide sequence of an unusual reptilian retrovirus recovered from the order Crocodylia.

Joanne Martin1, Peter Kabat, Elisabeth Herniou, Michael Tristem.   

Abstract

A novel group of retroviruses found within the order Crocodylia are described. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that they are probably the most divergent members of the Retroviridae described to date; even the most conserved regions of Pol show an average of only 23% amino acid identity when compared to other retroviruses.
