Abstract:
Objective To be acquainted with genetic characteristics and variation of mumps virus strains circulating in Hunan province.Methods Mumps virus (MV) strains were isolated using Vero/SLAM cells.The small hydrophobic protein (SH) genes of MV isolates were sequenced,and the sequences were analysed phylogenetically between the isolated strains and other reference mumps strains.Results 4 mumps virus strains were isolated from 16 specimens collected in 2011 from different regions of Hunan province.The genotype of isolated strains were supposed to be F type.Conclusion Genotype F is the main genotype of circulating strains in Hunan province in 2011 and there is no variation between genotype.
