Characterization of the HdIV genomic segments encoding the novel 6 rep genes by Southern-blot analysis with gene-specific oligonucleotide probes. The molecular weight marker corresponds to linear DNA (kb). Purified HdIV DNA was separated on 1% agarose gel and stained with BET (HdIV), then transferred to Nylon membrane for hybridization with oligonucleotide probes specific to rep4 (rep4), rep5 (rep5), rep7 (rep7) and rep8 (rep8) genes. Due to high similarity between the rep6 and rep11 coding sequences, the rep6 probe (rep6&11) should allow detection of both genes. SH-J, containing rep5 and rep11 genes, and SH-H, containing the rep6 gene, are indicated by vertical arrows.
