Gene amplification acts as a molecular foothold to facilitate cross-species adaptation and evasion of multiple antiviral pathways
2022-06-08
Abstract excerpt
Cross-species spillover events are responsible for many of the pandemics in human history including COVID-19; however, the evolutionary mechanisms that enable these events are poorly understood. We have previously modeled this process using a chimeric vaccinia virus expressing the rhesus cytomegalovirus-derived PKR antagonist RhTRS1 in place of its native PKR antagonists; E3L and K3L (VACVΔEΔK+RhTRS1). Using this...
