摘要
In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, OhAinle et al., 2008 report that APOBEC3H, a potent innate retroviral restriction factor in primates, lost its function twice independently during recent evolution in humans, stressing an ever present trade-off between benefit and cost of protection against pathogens.
