| characterization of m-class genome segments of muscovy duck reovirus s14. | this report documents the first sequence analysis of the entire m1, m2, and m3 genome segments of the muscovy duck reovirus (drv) s14. the complete sequence of each of the three m gene segments was determined. the m1 genome segment was 2283 nucleotides in length and was predicted to encode mua protein of 732 residues. the escherichia coli expressed m1 transcripts generated a 108kda protein, as expected for mua. a cleavage product of mua, mua1, could be detected by western blotting with duck anti ... | 2007 | 17218035 |
