Percentage identity of the partial amino acid and nucleotide sequences of VP8* genes of KH210 and selected rotavirus P[6] strains*
Strain (lineage) | Species (country) | Deduced amino acid identity, % | Nucleotide identity, % |
---|---|---|---|
M37 (Ia) | Human (Venezuela) | 90 | 89 |
221/04–7 (Ib) | Porcine (Italy) | 94 | 92 |
134/04–10 (Ic) | Porcine (Italy) | 95 | 93 |
ES51/04 (Id) | Porcine (Spain) | 92 | 91 |
Gottfried (II) | Porcine (USA) | 85 | 82 |
AU19 (III) | Human (Japan) | 87 | 81 |
BP1198/98 (IV) | Human (Hungary) | 90 | 86 |
BP1227/02 (V) | Human (Hungary) | 88 | 85 |
*The amino acid and nucleotide sequence identity of VP8* genes of KH210 and KH228 were 99%. The amino acid sequence identity of VP8* genes between KH228 and Gottfried was 84%. Otherwise, the identity of amino acid and nucleotide sequences of VP8* genes of KH228 and selected rotavirus P[6] strains were same as for KH210.
