Abstract:
Objective To understand the gene E sequences of prevalent strains of Dengue fever type Ⅰ virus in Zhaoqing City during 2014.Methods The medical record data and acute stage serum of the patients with Dengue fever in Zhaoqing City during 2014 were collected.Dengue virus was cultured and isolated by using the C6/36 cell culture.Gene E of positive strains was amplified with RT-PCR.The phylogenetic tree was drawn and the bioinformatics analysis was conducted.Results Of 36 samples,20 samples were positive in viral isolation and culture.The gene E sequences of 20 strains of type Ⅰ Dengue virus prevalence in Zhaoqing dur-ing 2014 were obtained;the homology of these sequences was close to that of the 2 prevalent strains found in Zhongshan City,but was distant from that found in Guangzhou City.Conclusion The epidemic situation of Dengue fever in Zhaoqing City is closely re-lated to the prevalence situation of Zhongshan and is characterized by imported prevalence.
