Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Monkeypox virus is a member of the Poxviridae family, as variola and vaccinia viruses, presenting a linear double-strand DNA genome approximately ≈197 kb long, which encodes ≈190 non overlapping ORFs. Genomic comparison of Central and West African clades shows the presence of unique genes that promote different disease presentations according to the strain. Since the last smallpox vaccination ef...
