Abstract
Influenza virus neuraminidase inhibitors (NAIs) drug usage can result in NAI resistance, especially in children and individuals with weakened immune systems. The aim of the present study was to identify NAI-resistant variants of IBV and to introduce probable novel mutations, phylogenetic study, and its epitope mapping based on NA gene in patients from Shiraz, Iran. A cross-sectional study was conducted between 2017 and 2018 on symptomatic children. A real-time PCR was run for IBV screening. Then, making use of direct sequencing, amplified 1401 bases of NA gene and phylogenetic tree reconstructed. Epitopes were predicted using ABCpred server. From among a total of 235 specimens, 9.7% were identified with IBV infection. Of them, sequence of NA gene for 17 isolates were analyzed. Phylogenetic analysis showed that 15 isolates belonged to Yamagata clade 3 Wisconsin/01-like subclade and 2 were related to Victoria clade 1 Brisbane/60-like subclade (Vic-1A-2). NA gene sequence analysis showed a total of 52 substitutions in which 27 were for BVic and 37 were for BYam isolates and 19 were novel substitutions. Only one substitution (S198N) was found in NA active site and T49M, I120V, N198S, N219K, S295R, D320K N340D, E358K, D384G, and D463N were found as probable resistance variants to NAIs. Epitope mapping showed some major differences in our isolates NA gene. Present study was one of the rare comprehensive studies conducted in Shiraz/Iran on IBV resistant associated variants to NAIs. We reported 11.7% mutation in NA active site and some probable NAIs resistant mutations. Epitope mapping confirmed major changes in NA gene which needs broader studies to confirm.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
