Cultivation and characterization of human rotaviruses with "super short" RNA patterns.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Two group A, subgroup I, rotavirus strains possessing "super short" RNA patterns were adapted to growth in MA-104 cells. Both produced marked cytopathic effect in primary culture. Reciprocal cross-neutralization titers, polypeptide analysis, and the serum neutralizing antibody response of an infected child suggested that super short viruses are serotypically distinct from the four recognized human serotypes.
