Abstract

ABSTRACT We report the coding complete sequence of a human adenovirus species E type 4 (HAdV-E4) strain detected in a conjunctival specimen collected in Kerala, India in 2014. Illumina-based sequencing generated a 35,935 bp genome with a guanine-cytosine (GC) content of 56.4%, expanding the limited genomic data on HAdV-E circulating in India.
