The Variola Virus: The Threat of Reintroduction and Our Capacity to Respond
, 2014 Though eradicated in 1980, smallpox remains a top priority pathogen due to the threat of a deliberate or accidental reintroduction of the Variola major virus. This thesis represents a thorough assessment of this threat, grounded in the molecular virology

Variola virus topoisomerase: DNA cleavage specificity and distribution of sites in Poxvirus genomes
, 2007 Topoisomerase enzymes regulate superhelical tension in DNA resulting from transcription, replication, repair, and other molecular transactions. Poxviruses encode an unusual type IB topoisomerase that acts only at conserved DNA sequences containing the ...

Genome Sequence Diversity and Clues to the Evolution of Variola (Smallpox) Virus
, 2006 Comparative genomics of 45 epidemiologically varied variola virus isolates from the past 30 years of the smallpox era indicate low sequence diversity, suggesting that there is probably little difference in the isolates' functional gene content ...
