New Genes from Old: Redeployment of dUTPase by Herpesviruses

27 Sept 2005

Abstract excerpt

Published work (D. J. McGeoch, Nucleic Acids Res. 18:4105-4110, 1990; J. E. McGeehan, N. W. Depledge, and D. J. McGeoch, Curr. Protein Peptide Sci. 2:325-333, 2001) has indicated that evolution of dUTPase in the class of herpesviruses that infect mammals and birds involved capture of a host gene followed by a duplication event that resulted in a coding region comprising two fused dUTPase domains. Some of the...
