Evolutionary genetic dissection of human interferons

As revealed by population genetic analyses, different human interferon genes evolved under distinct selective constraints and signatures of positive selection vary according to geographic region, suggesting that some sequence changes may have conferred an advantage by increasing resistance to viral...
