Description

HRURF (HERV-K(HML-2) U3 Region Open Reading Frame) is a genomic element derived from the U3 region of the HERV-K (HML-2) endogenous retrovirus. It is classified as a pseudogene or non-coding RNA, with no confirmed protein product. The U3 region contains regulatory sequences (e.g., LTR promoter elements) that may influence nearby gene expression. HRURF is present in multiple copies across the human genome, reflecting integration events of HERV-K proviruses.
