Abstract:
Approximately 90% of the genome of porcine parvovirus was cloned into bacterial cells. The nucleotide sequence of the genome from 33 map units (MU) to 95 MU was determined and shown to include the entire gene encoding the capsid proteins. The predicted amino acid sequences of the capsid proteins showed extensive homology to those of other autonomous parvoviruses.
