Multiple stages of evolutionary change in anthrax toxin receptor expression in humans
Animal husbandry and hunting has increased human exposure to pathogens. Here, the authors investigate the evolution of human host gene expression to Bacillus anthracis infection, the bacterium that causes anthrax disease. They observe recent positive selection, suggestive of human genome adaptation...
