Drivers of Dengue Intrahost Evolution

Publication date: 13 September 2017
Source:Cell Host & Microbe, Volume 22, Issue 3
Author(s): Etienne Simon-Lorière, Marco Vignuzzi
RNA viruses circulate as rapidly evolving swarms of related variants, and their evolutionary dynamics within hosts may be key to understanding virus emergence. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Parameswaran et al. (2017) combine next-generation sequencing and functional studies to characterize viral populations in acute dengue infections.
