Abstract excerpt
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is a hepatotropic member of the family Picornaviridae. Currently, the entire nucleotide sequence is available for only 26 HAV isolates. The complete genome sequence of genotype IA HAV from strains isolated in South America, where genotype IA is the most prevalent genotype, remains unknown. In this study, the complete nucleotide sequence was determined for a genotype IA HAV isolate...
