title: Sequence, genomic organization of the EcoRI-A fragment of Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus, and identification of a viral-encoded protein resembling the outer capsid protein VP8 of rotavirus.
abstract: We present the sequence and genomic organization of the EcoRI-A fragment of the Autographa californica multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus, which represents 11% of the AcMNPV genome. Fifteen putative open reading frames and their respective amino acid sequences are described. One open reading frame is similar to the VP8 protein of rotavirus.
