This study examines how human cellular homeostasis buffers phenotypic effects of heterologous gene expression with extreme codon usage bias by analyzing transcriptomic and proteomic responses.

This study analyzes codon usage bias in 82 Coronaviruses, finding that mutational bias and CpG selection drive variation, with human-infecting coronaviruses showing distinct patterns.

This study reconstructs the evolutionary history of papillomaviruses using phylogenetic dating, revealing time-dependent substitution rates and multiphasic evolutionary periods driven by ecological opportunity.

This study shows that modifying loop 1 residues in APOBEC3C enhances its antiviral activity against HIV-1 and LINE-1 by improving ssDNA binding and deamination.

This study investigates the evolutionary origin and emergence of E5 oncogenes in papillomaviruses, finding that they likely arose de novo from non-coding regions and contributed to phenotypic diversity.

This study traces the evolutionary origins and diversification of papillomaviruses, identifying key genomic innovations and their timing in the viral lineage.
