Abstract: | The gene-coding assignments for genome segments 10 and 11 of a simian virus and two human rotaviruses were determined. For those viruses having a “long” RNA gel pattern (electropherotype), segments 10 and 11 encoded proteins NS3 and O4, respectively. The human virus with a “short” electropherotype had the opposite assignments and also differed in (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) serotype from the human virus with a long electropherotype. |
