Like other astroviruses, the AstV-MLB1 genome was predicted to encode three open reading frames (ORF1a, ORF1b, and ORF2) and contained both 5' and 3' non-translated regions (NTR), as well as a poly-A tail. In the less conserved regions II-IV, AstV-MLB1 shared only 5-27% amino acid identity to the known human astroviruses. Complete sequencing and genome analysis of Astrovirus MLB1 revealed that the virus has three open reading 1a 787 28 28 NA 29 29 NA NA 29 9 9 NA 10 22 24 1b 511 54 54 NA 54 54 NA NA 54 36 35 NA 36 47 44 2 756 24 24 24 23 23 24 24 24 15 16 16 11 18 19 frames sharing the same organization as other astroviruses. ./cache/cord-341321-paucodwz.txt ./txt/cord-341321-paucodwz.txt
