Abstract excerpt
Two strains of hepatitis A virus (HAV) were isolated in cell culture and found to induce a cytopathic effect at early passages. The nucleotide sequences of the 5' non-translated region (5'NTR) and of genes 2B, 2C, 3A and 3B were determined for these strains and found to contain mutations similar to those detected in cell-culture adapted variants of HAV strain HM175. In addition, gene 3A shows a deletion of three...
