[HTML][HTML] Prisoners of war—host adaptation and its constraints on virus evolution

P Simmonds, P Aiewsakun, A Katzourakis - Nature Reviews …, 2019 - nature.com
Recent discoveries of contemporary genotypes of hepatitis B virus and parvovirus B19 in
ancient human remains demonstrate that little genetic change has occurred in these viruses …

[HTML][HTML] Endogenous viral elements in animal genomes

A Katzourakis, RJ Gifford - PLoS genetics, 2010 - journals.plos.org
Integration into the nuclear genome of germ line cells can lead to vertical inheritance of
retroviral genes as host alleles. For other viruses, germ line integration has only rarely been …

Long-term reinfection of the human genome by endogenous retroviruses

R Belshaw, V Pereira, A Katzourakis… - Proceedings of the …, 2004 - National Acad Sciences
Endogenous retrovirus (ERV) families are derived from their exogenous counterparts by
means of a process of germ-line infection and proliferation within the host genome. Several …

Discovery and analysis of the first endogenous lentivirus

A Katzourakis, M Tristem, OG Pybus… - Proceedings of the …, 2007 - National Acad Sciences
The lentiviruses are associated with a wide range of chronic diseases in mammals. These
include immunodeficiencies (such as HIV/AIDS in humans), malignancies, and lymphatic and …

Time-dependent rate phenomenon in viruses

P Aiewsakun, A Katzourakis - Journal of virology, 2016 - Am Soc Microbiol
Among the most fundamental questions in viral evolutionary biology are how fast viruses
evolve and how evolutionary rates differ among viruses and fluctuate through time. Traditionally…

…, P Simmonds, NI Stilianakis, A Katzourakis - Nature Reviews …, 2023 - nature.com
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused millions of deaths
and substantial morbidity worldwide. Intense scientific effort to understand the biology of …

[HTML][HTML] Antigenic evolution will lead to new SARS-CoV-2 variants with unpredictable severity

PV Markov, A Katzourakis, NI Stilianakis - Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2022 - nature.com
The comparatively milder infections with the Omicron variant and higher levels of population
immunity have raised hopes for a weakening of the pandemic. We argue that the lower …

[HTML][HTML] Six reference-quality genomes reveal evolution of bat adaptations

…, S Winkler, LS Jermiin, EC Skirmuntt, A Katzourakis… - Nature, 2020 - nature.com
Bats possess extraordinary adaptations, including flight, echolocation, extreme longevity and
unique immunity. High-quality genomes are crucial for understanding the molecular basis …
