TABLE 3.
Intron splice junctions detected in cDNA for U18/U19/U20
| HHV-6 variant | Intron | Donor sitea | Acceptor sitea |
|---|---|---|---|
| HHV-6A | 1 | D1: GGCA(AG)/(GT)GTGT | A1: CCAC(AG)/AGACGC |
| HHV-6B | 1 | D3: GCTG(AG)/(GT)AGGT | A1: CCAC(AG)/AGATGC |
| HHV-6A | 2 | D2: CAAA(AG)/(GT)CCGT | A2: TGAC(AG)/(G)TGTAT |
| Consensus sequence | N(AG)/(GT)AAGT | TTNC(AG)/G |
Point mutation in HHV-6B is shown in boldface type. Parentheses indicate nucleotides within the splice junctions which show 100% identity to the consensus sequence.
