Abstract

A new approach to respiratory syncytial virus subgroup differentiation has been developed on the basis of the hybridization of subgroup-specific synthetic oligonucleotides with viral mRNA. Two oligonucleotide probes were designed from the nucleotide sequences of an A and a B subgroup respiratory syncytial virus glycoprotein G gene. All 28 virus isolates tested were correctly classified by subgroup with these probes.
