Comparative amino acid sequence alignments revealed that PEDV is most closely related to human coronavirus (HCoV)-229E and transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) and less related to murine hepatitis virus (MHV) and infectious bronchitis virus (IBV). The alignment of the deduced amino acid sequences indicated that PEDV occupies an interesting intermediate position between the two well-characterized members of the group I coronaviruses, transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) and human coronavirus (HCoV)-229E. In order to obtain the first partial PEDV specific sequences, the predicted amino acid sequences of the HCoV-229E and TGEV polymerase ORFs were aligned and homologous regions identified. The deduced amino acid sequences of ORF1a and ORF1b from PEDV were aligned with the corresponding sequences of HCoV-229E, TGEV, MHV-A59, and IBV using PILEUP. ./cache/cord-344558-1jgqofbr.txt ./txt/cord-344558-1jgqofbr.txt
