Ebolavirus Evolution: Past and Present.

PLoS pathogens - 1 Jan 2015

de La Vega Marc-Antoine, Stein Derek, Kobinger Gary P

Abstract excerpt

The past year has marked the most devastating Ebola outbreak the world has ever witnessed, with over 28,000 cases and over 11,000 deaths. Ebola virus (EBOV) has now been around for almost 50 years. In this review, we discuss past and present outbreaks of EBOV and how those variants evolved over time. We explore and discuss selective pressures that drive the evolution of different Ebola variants, and how they may...
