Sequence Analysis of the Hemagglutinin Gene of H9N2 Korean Avian Influenza Viruses and Assessment of the Pathogenic Potential of Isolate MS96
1 Jul 2000
Abstract excerpt
Sequence analysis of the hemagglutinin (HA) gene of five Korean H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) isolates showed that these viruses were closely related and possibly came from the same source. Phylogenetic analysis of the HA1 subunit of H9 subtype isolates revealed that Korean AIV isolates were different from isolates from the poultry markets in Hong Kong in 1997. None of the Korean AIVs had multiple basic amino...
