Figure 1. . Phylogenetic tree based on aligned amino acid sequences of the full length of the protease (open reading frame [ORF] 1a) (A), RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (ORF1b) (B), and capsid (ORF2) region (C) of representative astrovirus (AstV) species. BoAstV-NeuroS1 labeled with filled circle. AstVs with neurotropic potential labeled by empty circles. Clade containing these 3 viruses is shaded. Scale bar indicatesestimated protein sequence phylogenetic distance. GenBank accession numbers for astrovirus used in the analysis are as follows: bovine BoAstV-NeuroS1 (KF233994), human AstV-1 (JN887820), human AstV-4 (DQ344027), human AstV-6 (HM237363), human AstV MLB1 (JQ086552), human AstV MLB2 (NC_016155), human AstV-VA1 (FJ973620), human AstV-VA4 (JX857869), human AstV-HMO-A (NC_013443), human AstV-HMO-B (GQ415661), human AstV-HMO-C (GQ415662), human AstV-PS (GQ891990), ovine AstV (NC_002469), ovine AstV-2 (JN592482), bovine AstV B18 (HQ916313), bovine AstV-B34 (HQ916315), bovine AstV-B76 (HQ916316), bovine AstV-B170 (HQ916314), porcine AstV-2 (JF713712), porcine AstV-5 (JF713711), mink AstV (AY179509), mink AstV-SMS (GU985458), rabbit AstV (JF729316), and chicken AstV (JF414802).
