RNA viruses can recombine their genetic material during co-infection. However, the in vivo frequency of co-infections is unclear. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Erickson et al. (2018) demonstrate that an enteric RNA virus concentrates itself through multi-virion binding to bacteria, thus increasing genetic recombination and virus adaptability.
RNA 病毒在共感染期间可以重组其遗传物质。然而,共感染的体内频率尚不清楚。在本期《细胞宿主与微生物》中,Erickson 等人(2018)表明,一种肠道 RNA 病毒通过多病毒与细菌结合来浓缩自身,从而增加遗传重组和病毒适应性。
