Characterisation and phylogenetic analysis of the VP7 proteins of serotype G6 and G8 human rotaviruses
1 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
Serotype G6 and G8 rotaviruses are rarely found in man and may have originated in animals. Human serotype G6 and G8 rotaviruses, isolated from hospitalised children at various locations in Australia, were characterised. Deduced amino acid sequences of the major neutralising antigen, V7, showed significant identity to the cognate proteins of prototype human and bovine G6 and G8 viruses, respectively, and the...
