Abstract excerpt
The 5'-untranslated genomic region of the pestivirus strain Europa, originated in human leucocytes and previously identified as bovine diarrhea virus (BVDV), was amplified by reverse transcription-PCR and sequenced. Analyses based on primary nucleotide sequence homology and on secondary palindromic sequence structures characteristic to genotypes revealed that this human isolate should be assigned to a novel...
