A novel group A rotavirus G serotype: serological and genomic characterization of equine isolate FI23.

PMCID: PMC270257  PMID: 1663521

Abstract

Equine rotavirus FI23 was shown to be prototypic of a novel G serotype, provisionally G14, by cross-neutralization and VP7 sequence determination. Although distinct, there are as few as six differing amino acid residues (92, 94, 96, 146, 147, and 221) in the VP7 antigenic regions of FI23 and G3 rotaviruses.
