Abstract
Rotavirus group C is an important cause of sporadic cases and outbreaks of gastroenteritis worldwide. Whole-Genome sequences of human rotavirus C (RVC) in public databases are limited. We performed genome sequencing to analyze a RVC outbreak of acute gastroenteritis in China. Samples from 22 patients were screened for pathogens using RT-PCR, and six samples were positive for rotavirus. Whole-Genome sequencing analysis showed that the outbreak strain SJZ217 belongs to the G4-P[2]-I2-R2-C2-M3-A2-N2-T2-E2-H2 genotype and shares almost identical genomic sequences with Chungnam isolated in Korea. Phylogenetic analysis revealed strain SJZ217 also fell into a cluster with rotavirus C strains from Japan and Europe. Reassortment in the VP4 fragment was observed. These results helped to understand the genetic diversity and possible spread of RVC strains.
期刊介绍：
Virology Journal is an open access, peer reviewed journal that considers articles on all aspects of virology, including research on the viruses of animals, plants and microbes. The journal welcomes basic research as well as pre-clinical and clinical studies of novel diagnostic tools, vaccines and anti-viral therapies.
The Editorial policy of Virology Journal is to publish all research which is assessed by peer reviewers to be a coherent and sound addition to the scientific literature, and puts less emphasis on interest levels or perceived impact.
