Abstract:
Objective To study the gene characteristics of VP1 region of Enterovirus 71 (EV71) strains isolated from clinical specimens of children with hand-foot-and-mouth disease(HFMD) in Shanghai in 2010.MethodsEighteen EV71 isolates were selected from different periods of year 2010,including strains isolated from fatal cases and non-fatal cases.Complete VP1 gene (891nucleotides) of the eighteen EV71 isolates were amplified and sequenced,and then compared with that of genotype A,B,C reference EV71 strains in GeneBank by homogeneity and phylogenetic tree analyses.ResultsThe nucleotide homogeneities between these 18 Shanghai strains and the representative isolates of genotype A and B were 81.5 ％ -82.6 ％ and 83.4 ％- 84.2 ％,respectively,while the amino acid homogeneities were 94.3 ％- 95.0％ and 96.6％ -97.0％,respectively.The nucleotide and amino acid homogeneities between the 18 Shanghai strains and the representative isolates of genotype C were 87.4％- 99.2％ and 98.7％ -100.0％,respectively.Of note,the nucleotide and amino acid homogeneities between Shanghai strains and Fuyang EV71strains (representative strain of C4 subtype) appeared to be 97.8％- 99.2％ and 99.3％- 100.0％,respectively.The eighteen EV71 Shanghai strains were classified as genotype C,subgenogroup C4 in the phylogenetic tree.There was no remarkable difference in VP1 gene between the strains isolated from fatal cases and non-fatal cases.ConclusionThe EV71 strains isolated from Shanghai belong to subgenogroup C4.
