Abstract
⺠We described the phylogenetic analysis of VP1, VP2 and VP3 genes of G5 human RV-A strains from 28 Brazilian strains collected from 1986 to 2005. ⺠VP1-VP3 sequences have high amino acid identity with the human RV-A prototype IAL28 and other Wa-like strains. ⺠G5 Brazilian VP1-VP3 and VP7 sequences have a similar pattern of grouping. ⺠Information about VP1-VP3 genes are fundamental to understand the G5 genotype evolution and demonstrate the importance of monitoring and molecular characterization of RV-A strains circulating in populations.
