| new jc virus (jcv) genotypes from papua new guinea and micronesia (type 8 and type 2e) and evolutionary analysis of 32 complete jcv genomes. | the jc virus (jcv) is a ubiquitous human polyomavirus that frequently resides in the kidneys of healthy individuals and is excreted in the urine of a large percentage of the population. geographic-specific jcv variants, isolated from urine and from brain of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (pml) patients, have been grouped into seven distinct genotypes based on whole genome analysis and by individual polymorphic nucleotides (typing sites) in the vp1 coding region. mutations in the arch ... | 2001 | 11765914 |
