Complete nucleotide sequence of a strain of coxsackie B4 virus of human origin that induces diabetes in mice and its comparison with nondiabetogenic coxsackie B4 JBV strain

The E2 strain of coxsackie B4 virus (CB4), which is of human origin, can induce a diabetes‐like syndrome in mice. The cDNA of the genome of the E2 strain was cloned and sequenced. The E2 viral genome was found to comprise 7,396 bases, which appear to encode a polyprotein of 2,183 amino acids with an...
