Abstract excerpt
The genome of a novel foot-and-mouth disease virus, HKN/2002, was 8104 nucleotides (nt) in length (excluding the poly(C) tract and poly(A) tail) and was composed of a 1042-nt 5'-untranslated region (UTR), a 6966-nt open reading frame, and a 93-nt 3'-UTR. Genome sequences of HKN/2002 and other known FMDV strains were compared. The VP1, VP2, and VP3-based neighbor-joining (NJ) trees were divided into distinct...
