Viral protein instability enhances host-range evolvability.
PLoS Genetics, 2022 Viruses are highly evolvable, but what traits endow this property? The high mutation rates of viruses certainly play a role, but factors that act above the genetic code, like protein thermostability, are also expected to contribute.
