Polar encapsidation of adenovirus DNA: cloning and DNA sequence of the left end of adenovirus type 3.

PMCID: PMC256227  PMID: 6754969

Abstract

The left-end adenovirus type 3 DNA sequence is very similar to those of other subgroup B adenoviruses, especially in the area between the HinfI site (320 base pairs) and the early-region Ia gene. This segment of the genome has been implicated as necessary for the left-end polarity of adenovirus DNA encapsidation. This segment and the sequences flanking it are compared with the corresponding sequences of adenovirus type 5 and adenovirus type 12, and the extent and pattern of intersubgroup homologies are discussed.
