The nucleotide sequence of the region including the viral replicase gene, the carboxy terminus of protein P18, and the 3'-extracistronic region of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) type C1-Santa Pau (C-S8) has been determined from previously cloned cDNA fragments [Villanueva et al., Gene 23 (1983) 185-194]. The comparison with the corresponding gene segments of FMDV of serotypes A or O shows base substitutions in 7.2-8.6% of residues in the replicase gene with no insertions or deletions. This is about fourfold lower variation than found for the region encoding capsid protein VP1 of the corresponding viruses. Intermediate variability (substitution at 16.1-23.6% positions) exists in the 3'-extracistronic region, including point mutations, insertions and deletions. The predicted amino acid sequence of the replicase gene indicates that 75.5-82.6% of mutations are silent and that 93.4% of amino acids are conserved in the four FMDV replicases. The frequency of certain types of silent mutations and of rare codon usage is significantly lower for the replicase gene than for the protein VP1 coding region.
