FIG. 3.

Comparison of rhabdovirus gene junctions. (A) Gene junctions of the MFSV genome. The three motifs are indicated, corresponding to the 3′ ends of the mRNAs (column 1), intergenic sequences (column 2), and the 5′ ends of the mRNAs (column 3). (B) Consensus sequences of gene junctions of plant and animal rhabdoviruses. All sequences are presented in genomic sense in the 3′-to-5′ orientation, and nucleotide differences are underlined. Abbreviations: 3′ le, 3′ leader sequence; 5′ tr, 5′ trailer sequence; (N)_n, variable number of nucleotides.
