Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the sequence characteristics and evolutionary pattern of a strain of G1P[8] genotype group A rotvirus (RVA) SC18511073 in China and to determine the differences between SC18511073 and the antigenic epitopes of RotaTeq? and Rotarix? vaccines.Methods:RT-PCR amplification of 11 segments of SC18511073 was performed using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and the typing was conducted by online RVA automatic typing tool. DNAstar5.1 and Mega11.0 software were used to analyze the homology and genetic evolution of the 11 segments.Results:The genotype constellation of SC18511073 is G1P[8]-I1-R1-C1-M1-A1-N1-T1-E2-H1, and NSP4 is the E2 genotype. The VP7 and NSP3 segments of SC18511073 had high homology with the 2018 Sichuan epidemic G1P[8]-E1 strain, and the phylogenetic tree showed that they were located in the same branch. The remaining nine gene segments all had high homology with the G9P[8]-E2 type prevalent in China and were attributed to the same evolutionary branch. SC18511073 differs from RotaTeq? and Rotarix? by a total of 5 amino acid sites on 7-1a and 7-2 of VP7, and differences in the 8-1 and 8-3 regions of VP8 * antigen epitopes. Conclusions:The 2018 RVA strain SC18511073 in China is a rare G1P[8]-E2 type, which is a new strain generated by re-assortment of VP7 and NSP3 segments during the co-infection process of G1P[8]-E1 and G9P[8]-E2 RVA strains. SC18511073 has amino acid site changes in antigenic epitopes on VP7 and VP4 with RotaTeq? and Rotarix?.
