Human herpesvirus 6(HHV-6) variants A and B differ in cell tropism, reactivity with monoclonal antibodies, restriction endonuclease profiles, and epidemiology. Nonetheless, comparative nucleotide and amino acid sequences from several genes indicate that the viruses are very highly conserved genetically, The B variant is the major etiologic agent of exanthem subitum and is frequently isolated from children with...
