Endogenous retroviruses occupy a large portion of our genome. Yet, how the immune system imposes suppression of these elements are still largely unknown. My talk will focus on the layers of regulation of ERV at the genomic and immunologic levels. I will also discuss the disease consequences of suboptimal immune response to ERV.
