The subgroup F adenoviruses

Characterization of a single SA7-like VA RNA gene in subgroup F adenoviruses.

The virus-associated (VA) RNA gene regions of the human subgroup F adenoviruses (types 40 and 41) were amplified using primers corresponding to flanking open reading frames of human and simian (SA7) adenovirus sequences previously published. The subgroup F adeno-viruses, like human Ad12 (subgroup A) and SA7, were found to have only one VA RNA gene at this locus (map unit 30). The type 40 and ty...

Characteristics of noncultivable adenoviruses associated with diarrhea in infants: a new subgroup of human adenoviruses.

Virus particles morphologically resembling adenovirus were found in fecal specimens from infants and were examined for cultivability with standard cell culture techniques and for characteristics of human adenoviruses. Specimens from 13 of 15 infants could not be cultivated in cell cultures. The two adenoviruses that were cultivated, types 1 and 31, reacted in the expected manner in all tests. C...

Region E3 of subgroup B human adenoviruses encodes a 16-kilodalton membrane protein that may be a distant analog of the E3-6.7K protein of subgroup C adenoviruses.

There is an open reading frame in the E3 transcription unit of adenovirus type 3 (Ad3) and Ad7 that could encode a protein of 16 kDa (16K protein). Ad3 and Ad7 are members of subgroup B of human adenoviruses. Using a rabbit antipeptide antiserum, we show that the 16K protein is expressed in Ad3- and Ad7-infected cells at early and late stages of infection; it is not expressed in cells infected ...

A subgroup formula for f-invariant entropy

We study a measure entropy for finitely generated free group actions called f-invariant entropy. The f-invariant entropy was developed by L. Bowen and is essentially a special case of his measure entropy theory for actions of sofic groups. In this paper we relate the f-invariant entropy of a finitely generated free group action to the f-invariant entropy of the restricted action of a subgroup. ...
