Abstract
Sequencing and computer analysis of a 43,069-bp segment of smallpox (v ariola) virus genome covering HindIII fragments C, E, R, Q, K, and H w ere carried out. This region was found to contain 42 open reading fram es. The encoded polypeptides were compared with relevant vaccinia viru s proteins. This genomic region was found to be highly conserved among orthopoxviruses.
