phylogenetic and serological characterization of echovirus 11 and echovirus 19 strains causing uveitis. | the strains of echovirus 19 (ev 19) and echovirus 11 (ev11), isolated from infants with similar clinical symptoms of acute enterovirus uveitis (eu) in russia (siberia) in 1980-1989, were investigated phylogenetically (nucleotide sequence of a 300 nt fragment in 5' ntr and vp4 junction) and serologically. the result confirmed that viruses belong to the enterovirus genus, with 58-80% nt sequence homology with previously sequenced enteroviruses, and showed the genetical identity between the strains ... | 2002 | 11855627 |
