Abstract
Objective: To analyze the genotypes of VZV in Jiangsu province to identify vaccine strains and wild strains, providing a molecular biological background for the effective prevention and control of varicella.
Method: Stratified sampling was used to collect herpes fluid or throat swab from patients diagnosed with varicella. ORF22 was carried out, and the restriction enzyme site of ORF38, ORF54 and ORF62 were detected.
Results: All 207 virus strains were Clade 2 type by sequencing the PCR products of ORF22. The sequencing results showed that five SNP sites changed compared to the Dumas reference strain(Clade 1). From A to G at 37,902, from T to c at 38,055, from A to C at 38,081, and from G to A at 38,177, from G to A at 39,394. The prevalent VZV genotypes in Jiangsu is consistent with the P-Oka. The restriction enzyme site analysis of PCR amplification products from ORF38 (PstI), ORF54 (BglI), ORF62 (SmaI) showed that all 207 virus strains were wild-type. There were two different types of the wild strains, and 183 strains (88.4%) were PstI (+), BglI (+), SmaI (-). The wild strains between different regions showed no significant differences (χ2 = 0.05, P = 0.982).
Conclusions: The prevalent VZV genotypes are Clade 2 and the prevalent virus strains are wild strains in Jiangsu Province, the primary wild strain observed is mainly PstI (+), BglI (+), SmaI (-).
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.
