  • Title: Evidence of a recombinant wild-type human astrovirus strain from a Kenyan child with gastroenteritis.
    Author: Wolfaardt M, Kiulia NM, Mwenda JM, Taylor MB.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2011 Feb; 49(2):728-31. PubMed ID: 21106800.
    Abstract:
    A human astrovirus (HAstV) strain from Kenya was characterized by nucleotide sequence analysis. Sequences from open reading frame 1a (ORF1a) clustered with genotype 6/7, those from ORF1b clustered with genotype 3, and those from ORF2 clustered with genotype 2. A recombination point in the ORF1b-ORF2 junction was identified, with a second possible recombination point within the ORF1a region.
