Viral factors determining rotavirus pathogenicity
Arch Virol Suppl.
1997.
Abstract
The pathogenicity of rotaviruses depends on multiple viral and host factors. Evidence is presented for the involvement of a number of viral genes (coding for structural and non-structural proteins) in the ability of the virus to cause diarrhoea. Different genes are important in different rotavirus--host systems suggesting that there is no single viral pathogenicity factor.
