Genes in the terminal regions of orthopoxvirus genomes experience adaptive molecular evolution
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Orthopoxviruses are dsDNA viruses with large genomes, some encoding over 200 genes. Genes essential for viral replication are located in the center of the linear genome and genes encoding host response modifiers and other host intera...
