Evolution of Envelope Sequences from the Genital Tract and Peripheral Blood of Women Infected with Clade A Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1

Poss, Mary, Rodrigo, Allen G., Gosink, John J., Learn, Gerald H., De Vange Panteleeff, Dana, Martin, Harold L., ...

The development of viral diversity during the course of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection may significantly influence viral pathogenesis. The paradigm for HIV-1 evolution is based...

Variants from the Diverse Virus Population Identified at Seroconversion of a Clade A Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1-Infected Woman Have Distinct Biological Properties

Poss, Mary, Overbaugh, Julie

Development of effective therapeutics to prevent new infections with human immunodeficiency type 1 (HIV-1) is predicated on an understanding of the properties that provide a selective advantage to a...

Envelope Variants from Women Recently Infected with Clade A Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Confer Distinct Phenotypes That Are Discerned by Competition and Neutralization Experiments

Painter, Sally L., Biek, Roman, Holley, David C., Poss, Mary

Women infected with clade A human immunodeficiency virus type 1 harbor a virus population that is genetically diverse in the envelope gene, a fact that contrasts with the homogeneous virus population...

Epidemiology, Genetic Diversity, and Evolution of Endemic Feline Immunodeficiency Virus in a Population of Wild Cougars

Biek, Roman, Rodrigo, Allen G., Holley, David, Drummond, Alexei, Anderson, Charles R., Ross, Howard A., ...

Within the large body of research on retroviruses, the distribution and evolution of endemic retroviruses in natural host populations have so far received little attention. In this study, the...

Feline Lentivirus Evolution in Cross-Species Infection Reveals Extensive G-to-A Mutation and Selection on Key Residues in the Viral Polymerase

Poss, Mary, Ross, Howard A., Painter, Sally L., Holley, David C., Terwee, Julie A., VandeWoude, Sue, ...

Factors that restrict a virus from establishing productive infection in a new host species are important to understand because cross-species transmission events are often associated with emergent...

Genetic consequences of sex-biased dispersal in a solitary carnivore: Yellowstone cougars

Biek, Roman, Akamine, Naomi, Schwartz, Michael K, Ruth, Toni K, Murphy, Kerry M, Poss, Mary

Male-biased dispersal is a common trait in mammals, including carnivores, but its genetic consequences at the population level have been rarely considered for solitary species. We used long-term...

Population Dynamics and Rates of Molecular Evolution of a Recently Emerged Paramyxovirus, Avian Metapneumovirus Subtype C▿ †

Padhi, Abinash, Poss, Mary

We report the existence of two distinct sublineages of avian metapneumovirus (MPV) subtype C, a virus which has caused serious economic loss in commercial turkey farms in the United States. This...
