| characterization of vp1, vp2 and vp3 gene segments of a human rotavirus closely related to porcine strains. | long rna electropherotype rotavirus strains with subgroup i specificity predominated the infantile gastroenteritis outbreak in manipur, india, in 1987-88. one such strain (rmc321) was found to possess porcine characteristics in 7 out of 8 genes sequenced. partial characterization of its remaining vp1, vp2 and vp3 genes along with a porcine rotavirus strain (hp140) uncovered their close genetic relation to porcine strains. vp7 was the only gene segment of this strain with significant genetic iden ... | 2006 | 16732476 |
