Abstract excerpt
The VP7, VP4 and NSP4 genes of human rotavirus serotype 4 (G4) were analyzed to investigate intraserotypic variations. The techniques used included reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction with subtype specific primers, restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and sequence analysis. Twelve isolates (nine from Japan and three from Kenya) and two standard strains (Hochi, Odelia) were G4A P[8] Wa...
