Possible Roles of New Mutations Shared by Asian and American Zika Viruses.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Mar 2017

Yokoyama Shozo, Starmer William T

Abstract excerpt

Originating in Africa, the Zika virus (ZIKV) has spread to Asia, Pacific Islands and now to the Americas and beyond. Since the first isolation in 1947, ZIKV strains have been sampled at various times in the last 69 years, but this history has not been reflected in studying the patterns of mutation accumulation in their genomes. Implementing the viral history, we show that the ZIKV ancestor appeared sometime in...
