ABSTRACT
cDNA clones representing nine genes of pneumonia virus of mice (PVM) have been generated. The sizes of the corresponding mRNAs and a provisional transcriptional map of the virus genome have been determined. The apparent gene order is very similar to that of respiratory syncytial virus. The sequences adjacent to the 3' termini of the PVM genes were determined and are very similar to those of respiratory syncytial virus. Several PVM gene polypeptide products have been assigned.
