Analysis of two VP60 capsid protein genes of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus from viruses obtained from the same farm.
Two distinct clones of the VP60 capsid protein gene of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus were amplified from mixed liver tissue of rabbits collected from the same farm in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China in 2002. The results of DNA sequence analysis showed that the length of the VP60 gene in the first clone was 1,740 bp, similar to other VP60 genes. The length of the VP60 gene in the second clone was only 1,536 bp. The two clones were predicted to encode 579 and 511 amino acids, respectively.
