Abstract excerpt
This study reports on genomic characterization of six measles virus (MV) isolates obtained from a measles epidemic in Argentina in 1998. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and nucleotide sequence analysis of the carboxyl-terminal region of the nucleoprotein (N) gene of these isolates classified all of them as wild type MV of D6 genotype. MVs of D6 genotype with identical nucleotide sequences...
