چکیده
Motivation: Orthopoxviruses are a large group of closely related viruses displaying a high homology of their genomic nucleotide sequences. These viruses differ also in the severities of the diseases they cause and have different host ranges. Evolutionary relationships of various orthopoxvirus species are yet vague (Marennikova, Shchelkunov, 1998). Results: Analysis of the structures of important virulent factors, such as virus growth factor, gamma-interferon receptor, hemagglutinin, and fusion protein, demonstrated that the corresponding variola virus genes display most numerous distinctions from the other orthopoxviruses, including the functionally important gene regions. In phylogenetic relationships, the genes in question fall into natural groups according to their species attribution. Phylogenetic relationships between the studied orthopoxviruses found while analyzing different genes display certain distinctions. Analysis of the EGF-like region of growth factors demonstrated that orthopoxvirus growth factors clustered with epiregulin, whereas leporipoxvirus growth factors, with transforming growth factors and those of orf viruses, with epidermal growth factors. Presumably, this suggests that different cellular genes from the family of EGF-like growth factors were donated to different poxviruses during their evolutionary development.

متن کاملOrganizing “Nursing Mentors Committee”: an Effective Strategy for Improving Novice Nurses’ Clinical Competency
Introduction: One of the most significant problems in clinical environment is the unskilled and inexperienced nurses. This is while, most managers are not aware of nurses' proficiency and competency level. Therefore, applying the new strategy of "organizing nursing mentors committee" by managers as well as their orientation in this regard could be considered as a strategy to improve clinical co...
