TABLE 4.
Distribution of natural RV type G9 reassortants
| No. of strains | Type by the following means of recognition (gene segment):
|
% Strains reactive with the following MAbsa:
|
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| G type (7/8/9) | P type (4) | Subgroup (6) | PAGE pattern (11) | F45:8 | ST3:1 | |
| 1b | 9 | 8 | IIc | Long | 0 (0/1) | 100 (1/1) |
| 32 | 9 | 6 | Id | Short | 32 (6/19) | 74 (14/19) |
| 5 | 9 | 6 | I, IIe | Long | 0 (0/2) | 50 (1/2) |
| 9 | 9 | 8 | If | Short | 56 (5/9) | 75 (6/8) |
| 6 | 9 | 0 | NDg | Short | ND | 89 (16/18) |
| 3 | 9 | 0 | ND | Long | ND | 33 (1/3) |
a
Not all strains were available for testing. None of the tested specimens reacted with the serotype-specific MAbs KU-4 (type G1 specific), S2-2G10 (type G2 specific), YO-1E2 (type G3 specific), and ST-2G7 (type G4 specific) (61). The numbers in parentheses indicate number of strains of that type/number of strains tested.
b
The genotype is identical to that of prototype strain WI61 (11).
c
One strain was tested.
d
Eighteen strains were subgroup I, two were not subgroupable, and two were not tested.
e
One strain was subgroup I and one strain was subgroup II.
f
Seven strains were subgroup I, and two strains were not subgroupable.
g
ND, not done.
