Abstract excerpt
We amplified the capsid protein gene fragments of 30 Japanese isolates of feline calicivirus (FCV), including the C, D, and E regions, by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), followed by direct sequencing. Alignment of the predicted amino acid sequences, together with other published sequences from the isolates obtained in other countries, demonstrated a marked heterogeneity among the...
