Genetic recombination in RNA viruses is an important evolutionary mechanism. It contributes to population diversity, host/tissue adaptation, and compromises vaccine efficacy. Both the molecular mechanism initial products of are relatively poorly understood. We used established poliovirus-based vitro assay investigate roles sequence identity structure, implicated or inferred from analysis circulating recombinant viruses, process. In addition, we next-generation sequencing early after cellular...

The heat uptake that resulted from immersing the hand and wrist into a water-filled calorimeter maintained at temperatures between 37-40 degrees C was measured under standard conditions in group of eight subjects either sex. rate transfer (W) increased exponentially with temperature function or body size age, but not normalized to mass (W.kg-1) determined by age: best-fit mean values (and 95% confidence limits population) were 6.0 W.kg-1 (3.2-11.2 W.kg-1) an immersion 37 25.4 (13.7-47.0 40...

Positive-strand RNA virus evolution is partly attributed to the process of recombination. Although common between closely genetically related viruses, such as within species Enterovirus genus Picornaviridae family, inter-species recombination rarely observed in nature. Recent studies have shown a ubiquitous process, resulting wide range recombinant genomes and progeny viruses. While not all yield infectious virus, their existence continued during replication critical implications for...
