Origins and evolutionary genomics of the novel 2013 avian-origin H7N9 influenza A virus in China: Early findings
Jiankui He, Luwen Ning, Yin Tong
In March and early April 2013, a new avian-origin influenza A (H7N9) virus (A-OIV) emerged in the eastern China. During the first week of April, the 18 infection cases have been co…
Low-dimensional clustering detects incipient dominant influenza strain clusters
Jiankui He, Michael W. Deem
Influenza has been circulating in the human population and has caused three pandemics in the last century (1918 H1N1, 1957 H2N2, 1968 H3N2). The 2009 A(H1N1) was classified by the…
Heterogeneous diversity of spacers within CRISPR
Jiankui He, Michael W. Deem
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) in bacterial and archaeal DNA have recently been shown to be a new type of anti-viral immune system in these orga…
Spontaneous Emergence of Modularity in a Model of Evolving Individuals
Jun Sun, Michael W. Deem
We investigate the selective forces that promote the emergence of modularity in nature. We demonstrate the spontaneous emergence of modularity in a population of individuals that e…
