Caprine Arthritis-Encephalitis Virus Is Distinct from Visna and Progressive Pneumonia Viruses as Measured by Genome Sequence Homology

Year: 1982

Type: article

Abstract: Competitive inhibition of hybridization between (125)I-labeled caprine arthritis-encephalitis viral RNA and homologous cDNA by heterologous viral RNA shows that the caprine retrovirus shares <20% genome sequence homology with visna and progressive pneumonia viruses. These viruses, however, are indistinguishable in immunodiffusion reactions involving the major structural protein (p28).
