Abstract excerpt
The immediate-early region exon 4 sequences of six clinical cytomegalovirus strains were determined and compared with those of laboratory strains AD169 and Towne. Of 407 codons in exon 4, 33 (8.1%) showed interstrain variation at the peptide level and 74 (18%) showed interstrain variation at the nucleotide level. Variation occurred sporadically throughout the exon, and no grouping of strains was apparent....
