  1. *, Amino acid residues are denoted by a standard four-digit numbering system. The first digit represents the protein (VP4, VP2 or VP1) and the remaining three digits the amino acid position, numbered independently for each protein from the amino (N-) terminus to the carboxyl (C-) terminus.
  2. §, Three-letter amino acid codes are used (one-letter amino acid code is given in parentheses). The specific amino acid residues in the viral capsid proteins are shown in bold. His-2079 in O/Fujian/CHA/9/99wt and O/Fujian/CHA/9/99tc (bold and italics) is different from Tyr-2079 in the majority of sequences in the alignment of VP2 of PanAsia-1 viruses.
  3. £, secondary structure assignments are as described in references 39, 40 and references cited in 46.
