“…Identity was calculated as a percentage from the output of the SEQAP program using the shorter sequence length as the denominator. Amino acid sequences representing the L protein (Forss et al, 1984;Palmenberg et al, t984), or proteins VP4 to VP1 and 3B to 3D of AGM-27, HAV strain HM-175, encephalomyocarditis virus (Palmenberg et al, 1984), poliovirus type 1 Mahoney (Kitamura et al, 1981 ;Racaniello et al, 1981), foot-and-mouth disease virus type A 12 (Forss et al, 1984), and rhinovirus type 2 (Skein et al, 1985) and type 14 (Stanway et al, 1984;Callahan et al, 1985) were compared using the program RELATE (Dayhoff, 1978). 5" VP4 VP2 VP3 VPI 2A 2B i II I I I I I 735 g04 1470 2208 3108 36753996 2C 3A 3B 3C I II I 5001 5292 Nucleotide numbering is based on the genomic map of HM-175 (Cohen et al, 1987a).…”
