| genetic and antigenic characterization of a serotype g6 human rotavirus isolated in melbourne, australia. | an unusual rotavirus strain, mg6, was isolated from a 16-month-old child admitted to hospital with acute gastroenteritis. the virus could not be serotyped (g-typed) by enzyme immunoassay using standard reagents specific for common serotypes of human group a rotaviruses. nucleotide sequencing of cdna derived from the gene encoding the outer capsid protein, vp7, and deduction of the vp7 amino acid sequence indicated that this strain belonged to serotype g6, a serotype normally associated with viru ... | 1995 | 8636702 |
