Identification of active loci of a human endogenous retrovirus in neurons of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons, of unknown etiology. Previous studies showed reverse transcriptase in serum of ALS patients at levels comparable to human immunodeficiency virus‐infected patients; however, the source and signifi...
