Genetic Characterization and Sequencing Wild-type measles viruses have been divided into distinct genetic groups according to the nucleotide sequences of their hemagglutinin (H) and nucleoprotein (N) genes, which are the most variable genes on the viral genome. The nucleotide

For each
genetic grouping or genotype, a reference

Guidelines for naming strains or sequences have been developed so that a consistent genetic designation and analysis protocol can be applied by all investigators when communicating data about measles viruses. |
