Molecular cloning, sequence analysis and coding assignment of the major inner capsid protein gene of human group C rotavirus
Molecular cloning, sequence analysis and coding assignment of the major inner capsid protein gene of human group C rotavirus
The VP6 gene of human group C rotavirus was cloned and sequenced. Hybridization to the human group C and the porcine group C/Cowden dsRNA genomes assigned this coding sequence to segment 5. The complete human VP6 sequence contained an open reading frame of 1185 nucleotides (395 amino acids; deduced Mr 44,669 Da). The protein sequence demonstrated low homology with the group A VP6 sequences (41.7 to 42.7%) and high homology (88.9%) with the porcine group C VP6 sequence. However, the protein sequence alignments revealed a region of 10 amino acids that were significantly different between the human and the porcine group C viruses.

Abstract
The VP6 gene of human group C rotavirus was cloned and sequenced. Hybridization to the human group C and the porcine group C/Cowden dsRNA genomes assigned this coding sequence to segment 5. The complete human VP6 sequence contained an open reading frame of 1185 nucleotides (395 amino acids; deduced Mr 44,669 Da). The protein sequence demonstrated low homology with the group A VP6 sequences (41.7 to 42.7%) and high homology (88.9%) with the porcine group C VP6 sequence. However, the protein sequence alignments revealed a region of 10 amino acids that were significantly different between the human and the porcine group C viruses.
