Appendix: Measles Virus Antigenome and Protein Consensus Sequences

  • Chapter
Measles Virus

Part of the book series: Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology ((CT MICROBIOLOGY,volume 191))

Abstract

During the last few years, many new sequence analyses have been reported, primarily for circulating measles virus (MV) strains. Majority consensus sequences of the antigenome and of the proteins were established using all wild-type and vaccine strain sequences available from GenEMBL on June 1, 1994, with additional wild-type sequences for the H gene and the L gene (kindly provided by K. Baczko) and wild-type and vaccine strain sequences of the 5’- and 3’-terminal 100 nucleotides (kindly provided by S. Udem). Note that no sequences derived from subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) or measles inclusion body encephalitis (MIBE) have been considered.
