Complete Nucleotide Sequence and Genetic Organization of Aichi Virus, a Distinct Member of the <i>Picornaviridae</i> Associated with Acute Gastroenteritis in Humans
1 Oct 1998
Abstract excerpt
The complete nucleotide sequence of a novel enteric virus, Aichi virus, associated with nonbacterial acute gastroenteritis in humans was determined. The Aichi virus genome proved to be a single-stranded positive-sense RNA molecule with 8,251 bases excluding a poly(A) tail; it contains a large open reading frame with 7,302 nucleotides that encodes a potential polyprotein precursor of 2,433 amino acids. The genome...
