Mutation Rates, Mutation Frequencies, and Proofreading-Repair Activities in RNA Virus Genetics
The error rate displayed during template copying to produce viral RNA progeny is a biologically relevant parameter of the replication complexes of viruses. It has consequences for virus–host interactions, and it represents the first step in the diversification of viruses in nature. Measurements duri...
