Figure 3

Transcriptional activity of HERV-K(HML-2) proviruses in different germ cell tissues. The various germ cell tissue specimens have been grouped based on presence of Gag and/or Env antibodies in patients (GC1 – GC8), specimens from atrophic and orchitic testis (GC10, GC13) and normal testis (GCK1 – Testis). Relative cloning frequencies for gag-derived cDNAs are given. See Table 1 for Gag, Env and Rec coding capacity of individual loci, and Fig. 2 and Additional file 1 for further details.
