[Errantiviruses of Drosophila]
Abstract
The view on Drosophila long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons, which have three reading frames, as endogenous retroviruses or errantiviruses (ERVs, according to the latest ICTV nomenclature) is discussed. Data on the biology of ERVs and the mechanisms of their involvement in genetic instability of Drosophila are considered.
