Genomics, proteomics and evolution of dengue virus

Genomics, proteomics and evolution of dengue virus

Vivek Dhar Dwivedi et al. Brief Funct Genomics. .

Abstract

The genome of a pathogenic organism possesses a specific order of nucleotides that contains not only information about the synthesis and expression of proteomes, which are required for its growth and survival, but also about its evolution. Inhibition of any particular protein, which is required for the survival of that pathogenic organism, can be used as a potential therapeutic target for the development of effective drugs to treat its infections. In this review, the genomics, proteomics and evolution of dengue virus have been discussed, which will be helpful in better understanding of its origin, growth, survival and evolution, and may contribute toward development of new efficient anti-dengue drugs.

Keywords: dengue virus; evolution; genomics; proteomics; serotypes.
