Does the Zinc Finger Antiviral Protein (ZAP) Shape the Evolution of Herpesvirus Genomes?
An evolutionary arms race occurs between viruses and hosts. Hosts have developed an array of antiviral mechanisms aimed at inhibiting replication and spread of viruses, reducing their fitness, and ultimately minimising pathogenic effects. In turn, viruses have evolved sophisticated counter-measures...
