title: DNA sequence of the fowl adenovirus serotype 10 short fiber gene.
abstract: The complete nucleotide sequence and map location of the short fiber gene of fowl adenovirus serotype 10 (FAV-10) strain CFA20 was determined. The coding sequence of the short fiber gene was found to be 1383 bp, encoding a putative polypeptide of 461 amino acids. The gene was located between 69.2 to 71.7 map units on the FAV-10 genome. A consensus splice acceptor site was located 30 bp upstream of the putative translation start codon and a polyA recognition sequence was located 24 bp downstream of the translation stop codon, signaling the end of late transcription unit five.
