According to the authors' abstract of an article published in Journal of Medical Virology, "The nucleotide sequence from position 5,014 to 7,186 of the hepatitis E virus (HEV) genome was determined using a set of 10 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) fragments amplified directly from a pool of fecal specimens obtained from patients with well-documented epidemic HEV infection in Morocco. This sequence contains the 3'-terminal region of open reading frame 1 (ORF1), full length ORF2 and ORF3, and a portion of the 3'-noncoding region. The HEV Morocco nucleotide sequence was compared with the corresponding sequences of 13 HEV strains. A region of ORF2 that overlaps with ORF3 was found to be the...
