Abstract excerpt
Studies of antigenic variation between small round-structured viruses (SRSVs) using immune electron microscopy have revealed 3 antigenic types currently circulating in the UK represented by the strains SRSV/Bri/93/UK, SRSV/Sot/91/UK and SRSV/Mel/89/UK. Mel/89/UK RNA was isolated from a 1989 school outbreak of gastroenteritis. The 3'-terminal 3435 nucleotides (excluding the poly(A) tail) were determined by RT-PCR...
