Abstract excerpt
On the basis of the comparison of complete genome structures of 32 strains and gene E fragments (160 ndt) of 643 strains and RNA isolates of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus, we confirmed our previously expressed assumption (Zlobin V.I. et al, 2001) of existence, along with the three major genotypes, of genotypes 4 (strain 178-79) and 5 (strain 886-84). "Mosaic" structure of the polyprotein in the two strains...
