Computational Evolutionary Analysis of the Overlapped Surface (S) and Polymerase (P) Region in Hepatitis B Virus Indicates the Spacer Domain in P Is Crucial for Survival

INTRODUCTION: The Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) genome contains four ORFs, S (surface), P (polymerase), C (core) and X. S is completely overlapped by P and as a consequence the overlapping region is subject to distinctive evolutionary constraints compared to the remainder of the genome. Specifically, a no...
