"This annotated genome (GenBank AF534906) confirms anticipated similarity to closely related species C (formerly subgroup), human adenoviruses HAdV-2 and -5, and near identity with earlier reports of sequences representing parts of the HAdV-1 genome," scientists writing in the Journal of General Virology report.

"A first round of HAdV-1 sequence data acquisition...
