Abstract excerpt
A single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) technique was developed for identification of genetic variation among 26 isolates of St. Louis encephalitis (SLE) virus. A 750-bp portion of the envelope gene was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and the products analyzed by SSCP. SSCP reliably identified genetic variation among the isolates from the US, Central and South...
