Abstract excerpt
A novel recombinant human adenovirus (HAdV) species D was isolated from the stool of a pharyngitis patient in Japan and genetic characterization was performed by sequencing variable regions between HAdV types. The nucleotide sequences of the penton base gene and loops 1 and 2 in the hexon gene showed 100% identity with that of the recently identified HAdV-56. Although we observed greatest identity for the entire...
