Nucleotide and amino acid sequence changes for WNV SP variant, relative to the parental WT sequence

Nucleotide		Nucleotide
	Gene/Region			AA Change
Position		WT^a	SP^b
625	Pr-54	C	U	Proline→Serine
1599	E211	C	U
3707	NS2A-61	U	C	Valine→Alanine
9660	NS5	C	U

WT: WNV 3356K isolated from the kidney of an American crow collected in New York in 2000, and amplified twice in Vero cells

SP: A small plaque variant (SP), isolated from the first Vero amplified WT stock, followed by 2 sequential rounds of plaque purification and two rounds of amplification in Vero cells.
