Abstract excerpt
We showed earlier that a transition mutation U234C, located within the completely conserved 5 nucleotide (nt) tract 5'-CGUUA (nt232-236) in the 5' non-translated region (NTR) of the coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) genome, attenuated CVB3 cardiovirulence in mice. To further explore the role of the sequence, we induced two single and one double transversion mutations in the conserved 5mer in a cardiovirulent CVB3 genome....
