Utility of JC polyomavirus in tracing the pattern of human migrations dating to prehistoric times

14 Apr 2005

Abstract excerpt

JC virus (JCV) is a double-stranded DNA polyomavirus co-evolving with humans since the time of their origin in Africa. JCV seems to provide new insights into the history of human populations, as it suggests an expansion of humans from Africa via two distinct migrations, each carrying a different lineage of the virus. A possible alternative to this interpretation could be that the divergence between the two...
