Abstract

Determination of the complete sequences of echovirus 12 and a rhodanine-resistant variant revealed seven amino acid deviations and two additional exchanges not confirmed in all clones. In rhodanine sensitivity assays with infectious cDNAs, it was shown that the biological markers of the original viruses are maintained.
