title: DNA sequences from the adenovirus 2 genome.
abstract: The sequence of 5,839 nucleotides from the adenovirus 2 genome has been determined and includes the regions between coordinates 32-44% and 66-71%. These regions contain the coding sequences for the 52,55K polypeptide, polypeptide IIIa, penton base, and the N terminus of the 100K polypeptide. Several additional unidentified open reading frames are present, including examples which overlap identified reading frames on the complementary strand and on the same strand. In conjunction with previously published sequences and those described in the accompanying papers (Akusjärvi, G., Aleström, P., Pettersson, M., Lager, M., Jöurnvall, H., and Pettersson, U. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 13976-13979; Aleström, P., Akusjärvi, G., Lager, M., Yeh-kai, L., and Pettersson, U. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 13980-13985) a complete sequence of 35,937 nucleotide pairs can now be reconstructed for the adenovirus 2 genome.
