HCMV-Encoded NK Modulators: Lessons From in vitro and in vivo Genetic Variation

HCMV-Encoded NK Modulators: Lessons From in vitro and in vivo Genetic Variation

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is under constant selective pressure from the immune system in vivo. Study of HCMV genes that have been lost in the absence of, or genetically altered by, such selection can focus research toward findings of in vivo significance. We have been particularly interested in t...
