Foot and Mouth Disease Virus : Current Research and Emerging Trends

Specialists in molecular biology and infectious disease review recent research and the current understanding of the small virus that causes foot-and-mouth disease. Their topics include foot-and-mouth disease virus proteinases and polyprotein processing, quasi-species dynamics taught by the natural and experimental evolution of foot-and-mouth disease virus, innate to adaptive: immune defence handing of foot-and-mouth disease virus, controlling foot-and-mouth disease by using replication-defective human adenoviruses to deliver vaccines and biotherapeutics, and the role of international organizations in controlling foot-and-mouth disease.
