title: Nucleotide sequence of the 3'-terminal region of carnation latent virus.
abstract: The sequence of 1,313 nucleotides of the 3'-terminal region of carnation latent virus RNA, determined from cDNA clones, was found to contain two major overlapping open-reading frames encoding proteins with relative molecular weights of 33.9 and 11.6 kD. The 33.9-kD protein, which is similar in size to the capsid protein, and the 3'-coterminal 11.6-kD protein show extensive homology with corresponding regions in other carlaviruses. Comparison of amino acid sequences of carnation latent virus coat protein and analogous regions in potexviruses showed large similarities.
