| | CBER - Simian Virus 40 (SV40:) A Possible Human Polyomavirus Workshop |
 | | A virus infection is probably controlled by tight immunological surveillance, and the severe changes of immunological virus/host interaction and probably comes to a 2-step situation. | | | This brings us back to the third possibility that changes in the virus host interactions due to severe breakdown of the immunological surveillance are the real requirement for the induction of clinical, overt CNS disease. | | | This slide just demonstrates that the JC virus is not another SV40 or humana SV40, and it has its own personality and character. |

| | Wired News: Ferreting Out Virus 'DNA' |
| | "A person can be matched from his or her DNA no matter what makeup they are wearing or what body altering surgery they have undergone," said David Sanders, head scientist at TASC. | | | TASC's eDNA program identifies and stops malicious programs such as viruses in the same way that a human's DNA can be used to identify his or her centuries-old genetic makeup. | | | The idea was that once you had the basic "DNA" of a program, you should be able to identify all of its "parents" and "children." |

| | Mimi, on the other hand, is lean and mean: more than 90% of its DNA does something specific. | | | Although it shows all the trademark features of a virus, the mimivirus is much more complex, says Jean-Michel Claverie, a biologist from the Institute of Structural Biology and Microbiology in Marseilles, France, who worked on the sequencing effort. | | | "To say that this virus represents a fourth category would be overstating the evidence, but it may hint that the categorization into three domains is oversimplistic," she says. |
