It was speculated that some SARS-CoV peptides common to HTLV might be responsible for the false positive results observed in HTLV antibody detection. These four common peptides were synthesized and tested the cross-reactivity of antibodies in the sera of SARS versus HTLV-infected patients. These four common peptides were synthesized further and tested for crossreactivity of antibodies in the sera of SARS versus HTLV infected-patients. This finding suggests that among the antibodies in the sera of SARS patients, those with cross-reactivity with HTLV peptides might disappear Six SARS coronavirus genomes are TW1/ay291451, CUHK-W1/ay278554, TOR2/nc_004718, CUHK-Su10/ay282752, BJ01/ay278488, and Urbani /ay278741. ./cache/cord-354948-q5eouyi2.txt ./txt/cord-354948-q5eouyi2.txt
