Abstract excerpt
S10 gene sequences of 1 attenuated vaccine strain and 31 Chinese field isolates & 1 South Africa strain of BTV were determined. The results revealed that all 33 S10 gene segments have 822 nucleotides in length with two in-frame initiation codons (nucleotides 20 to 22 and 59 to 61) and a common termination codon (nucleotides 707 to 709), which encodes two proteins (NS3 and NS3A). Nucleotide difference in the...
