Detecting Patches of Protein Sites of Influenza A Viruses under Positive Selection

Abstract excerpt

Influenza A viruses are single-stranded RNA viruses capable of evolving rapidly to adapt to environmental conditions. Examples include the establishment of a virus in a novel host or an adaptation to increasing immunity within the host population due to prior infection or vaccination against a circulating strain. Knowledge of the viral protein regions under positive selection is therefore crucial for...
