Evolutionary origins of human herpes simplex viruses 1 and 2.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Sept 2014

Wertheim Joel O, Smith Martin D, Smith Davey M, Scheffler Konrad, Kosakovsky Pond Sergei L

Abstract excerpt

Herpesviruses have been infecting and codiverging with their vertebrate hosts for hundreds of millions of years. The primate simplex viruses exemplify this pattern of virus-host codivergence, at a minimum, as far back as the most recent common ancestor of New World monkeys, Old World monkeys, and apes. Humans are the only primate species known to be infected with two distinct herpes simplex viruses: HSV-1 and...
