Abstract excerpt
Field isolates of measles virus (MV) during an 8-year period in four areas of Japan, i.e., Osaka, Nagoya, Tokyo and Akita, were classified into three types in regard to the electrophoretic mobility of the hemagglutinin (HA) proteins: S type with small (78K) HA, M type with intermediate (80 K) HA and L type with large (82 K) HA. The type of field isolates was closely related with the geographical location and the...
