Conserved mutations in the latest Monkeypox virus clade were characterized

The current global outbreak of Moneypox virus required a detailed bioinformatic analysis to determine which mutations are consistently present in isolates that are now being detected. Some of these may have caused changes in the virus' behavior, such as increasing the replication rate or virus titers, which needs to be experimentally verified.
