Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the whole-genome sequences of coxsackievirus A10 (CVA10) strains isolated in Jiangsu Province from 2015 to 2022 and their molecular epidemiological characteristics.Methods:Forty-five CVA10 isolates circulating in Jiangsu Province during 2015 to 2022 were selected for whole-genome sequencing. Phylogenetic trees were constructed based on the whole genome, VP1, P1, P2 and P3 sequences of CVA10 strains. Bioinformatics software, including DNAStar, MEGA7.0 and Similarity plots3.5.1, was used for analysis of homology, genetic recombination and major amino acid variation sites.Results:The nucleotide and amino acid sequence homology of the whole-genome sequences of 45 CVA10 strains was 90.3%-99.1% and 97.9%-99.8%, respectively. The nucleotide sequence homology of P1 region was the highest (92.1%-100.0%), while the nucleotide sequence homology of P3 region ranged from 84.7% to 100.0%. In contrast to the diversity of nucleotide sequences, the amino acid sequences of each region were conserved. A phylogenetic analysis based on the complete VP1 sequences of CVA10 strains revealed eight genotypes: A-H. The CVA10 isolates in Jiangsu Province and other prevalent strains in China mainly belonged to genogroup C. Results of the phylogenetic analysis based on the whole-genome sequences and complete VP1 sequences were consistent. Phylogenetic analysis bases on different gene segments and Simplot recombination analysis revealed that Jiangsu isolates GD07/Lianyungang/2017 and N180/Suqian/2016 showed high homology with the CVA10 prototype in the P1 region, but had recombination sites with other strains of enterovirus group A in the P2, P3, 5′-UTR and 3′-UTR regions. Compared with the prototype strain AY421767/Kowalik/2004, the Jiangsu isolates showed frequent variations in the VP1 region and many other major amino acid sites, which might result in some imperceptible changes in capsid structure and potential receptor-binding sites.Conclusions:By analyzing the evolution and genetic recombination features of CVA10 strains at the genome level in Jiangsu Province, this study elucidated the influence of genetic recombination and amino acid site mutation on CVA10 infection, providing basic data for the prevention and control of hand-foot-mouth disease in Jiangsu Province.
