Comparative study of nucleotide sequences of fiber genes among AdV-37 strains
| Sequence typea | Genome Type | Nucleotide in fiber gene at position:b
|
||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 270 | 350 | 701 | ||
| f1 | AdV-37p, D1, D3, D6 (1990), D7 | G | G | T |
| f2 | D6 (1993-) | A | G | T |
| f3 | D8, D9 | A | G | C |
| f4 | D10, D11 | G | C | T |
Accession numbers of nucleotide sequences of the each hexon sequences were as follows: f1 (U69132), f2 (AB161034)a, f3 (AB161035), and f4 (AB161036). The sequences of f2, f3, and f4, were registered in the present study.
Number indicates the position of fiber gene of AdV-37p (U69132). An amino acid substitution of Gly to Glu at position 270 and of Glu to Gln at position 350 occurred.
