Comparative analysis of protein evolution and RNA structural changes in the genome of pre-epidemic and epidemic Zika virus

2016-04-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Zika virus (ZIKV) infection is associated with microcephaly, neurological disorders and poor pregnancy outcome 1-3 and no vaccine is available. Although ZIKV was first discovered in 1947, the exact mechanism of virus replication and pathogenesis still remains unknown. Recent outbreaks of Zika virus in the Americas clearly suggest a better adaptation of viral strains to human host. Understanding...
