Abstract excerpt
Sequence analysis of the gene encoding the major neutralization glycoprotein (VP7) was performed on 12 human isolates of serotype 1 of rotavirus in Japan and China. They were examined for genetic variations among serotype 1 isolates. Comparative studies of their nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences between the 12 isolates and the Wa strain revealed an overall homology of more than 92 and 96%, respectively....
