| Abstract: | DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of a seropositive, PCR-positive, BLV-infected Holstein cow (No. 38) from Argentina. The DNA was amplified via PCR with a series of overlapping primers encompassing the entire BLV proviral DNA. The amplified BLV ARG 38 DNA was cloned, sequenced, and compared phylogenetically to three other full-length BLV sequences. Characterization of its deduced proteins and its relationship to other members of the PTLV/BLV genus of retroviruses are discussed. |
