Identification of multiple independent horizontal gene transfers into poxviruses using a comparative genomics approach

BACKGROUND: Poxviruses are important pathogens of humans, livestock and wild animals. These large dsDNA viruses have a set of core orthologs whose gene order is extremely well conserved throughout poxvirus genera. They also contain many genes with sequence and functional similarity to host genes whi...
