First, bioinformaticians are using these data extensively to fine-tune their methods for finding conserved sequences. However, the patient's serum but not CSF tested positive for flavivirus RNA when a universal flavivirus reverse transcription (RT)-PCR assay that targets the conserved sequence of the NS5 region was used (3). The goal is to provide unique insights into the significance of conserved sequences and polymorphisms, the genetic basis of variable sensitivity, molecular evolution, and adaptation. |
