A variant of variola virus, characterized by changes in polypeptide and endonuclease profiles.

Epidemiology and infection - 1 Apr 1999

Abstract excerpt

A variant of variola virus is described which produces a late polypeptide of 25 kDa instead of one of 27 kDa and which has an additional endonuclease cleavage site for SalI in the viral DNA. These markers were shown to be genetically independent and to characterize 14 of the 48 variola strains which were examined. The variant strains were isolated from smallpox outbreaks originating in or from Pakistan between...
