The genome of the host may reveal susceptibility genes and new drug targets that may be used in the treatment of infectious diseases. Thus far, polymorphisms in genes of the host immune system ...

Genes encoding pro-viral host factors are called susceptibility genes. The identification and functional characterization of such factors with the ultimate goal to create virus resistance with a ...
