There is a peculiar significance of the role of proviral sequences, insertions and transcripts as well as of the hormones. Nevertheless the precise biological function remains at the greatest part ignored.
在人类胎盘组织中,内源性逆转录病毒基因的表达发挥着特殊作用,似乎对外源逆转录病毒颗粒的扩散限制负有责任。前病毒序列、插入序列和转录本以及激素的作用具有特殊意义。然而,其确切的生物学功能在很大程度上仍未被了解。
