Analysis of genetic characteristics of whole genome of enterovirus 71 strain isolated from patients who died from hand, foot and mouth disease in Jilin Province in 2011
Objective To analyze the genetic characteristics of whole genome of enterovirus 71(EV71) isolated from patients who died from hand, foot and mouth disease(HFMD)in Jilin Province in 2011. Methods The whole genome of EV71 JL2011-56 strain isolated from the patients who died from HFMD in Jilin Province in 2011 was amplified and sequenced by segmented RT-PCR. Phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the whole genome sequences and genome sequences of VP regions of JL2011-56 strain and 27 reference strains in G...
