Partial genome sequence analysis of hepatitis E .virus isolated by cell culture
Abstract: Genome of presumed hepatitis E virus XJ90 and R25 was partially amplified by antigen capturepolymerase chain reaction(AC/PCR).cDNA band same as ET1·1 clune was ubserved.After purification,this cDNA band was sequenced using dideoxy mediated chain termination method.The nu-cleotide and amino acid homology between XJ90 R25 and ET1·1 clone were 99.6%,100%and99%,99%,respectively. This result showed that both XJ90 and R25 are hepatitis E virus.
