Figure 1From: Molecular characterization of the Great Lakes viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) isolate from USAGenetic map of the VHSV genome and cDNA clones used for sequence analysis. The location and relative size of the VHSV ORFs are shown; the numbers indicate the starts and ends of the respective ORFs. Six cDNA fragments (F1 to F6) were synthesized from genomic RNA by RT-PCR. The primers used for RT-PCR fragments are shown at the end of each fragment. The RNA genome is 11,184 nucleotides long and contains a leader (L) and trailer (T) sequences at its 3'-end and 5'-end, respectively. The coding regions of N, P, M, G, NV and L genes are separated by intergenic sequences, which have gene-start and gene-end signals.Back to article page
