Identification of fusion peptide fragments derived from proteins encoded by DVGs 1–4 based on LC–MS/MS analysis. (A)-(D) The genome structures and open reading frames (ORFs) of the DVGs 1–4 (upper panels). The numbers shown in each DVG structure are the nucleotide positions at which the recombination occurs. The amino acid sequences containing mutations (indicated in pink) or/and deletions (indicated by dashes) which match to these identified by LC-MS/MS analysis (lower panel) are underlined. The values of m/z for DVGs 1–4 are as follows: 492.2727 (DVG 1); 1035.1818 (DVG 2); 1031.1800 (DVG 3); 705.7044 (DVG 4). aa, amino acid
