چکیده
We report here a complete genome sequence of Ebola virus Makona from a nonfatal patient sample that originated in Sierra Leone during the last Ebola virus outbreak in West Africa (species Zaire ebolavirus) using a highly accurate circle sequencing (Cir-seq) method.

Genome sequence analysis of Ebola virus in clinical samples from three British healthcare workers, August 2014 to March 2015.
We determined complete viral genome sequences from three British healthcare workers infected with Ebola virus (EBOV) in Sierra Leone, directly from clinical samples. These sequences closely resemble those previously observed in the current Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa, with glycoprotein and polymerase genes showing the most sequence variation. Our data indicate that current PCR d...
متن کاملMolecular Signature of the Ebola Virus Associated with the Fishermen Community Outbreak in Aberdeen, Sierra Leone, in February 2015
We report the complete genome sequence of Ebola virus from a health worker linked to a cluster of cases occurring in the fishing community of Aberdeen, Sierra Leone (February 2015), which were characterized by unusually severe presentation. The sequence, clustering in the SL subclade 3.2.4, harbors mutations potentially relevant for pathogenesis.
متن کاملComplete Genomic Sequence of a Strain of Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus from Iran
Background and Aims: Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is one of the most destructive viruses of tomato that leads to reduced tomato yield up to 100% in tropical and subtropical regions. In this study, the complete sequence of TYLCV isolate from Hormozgan province, Iran and its recombination evsent was determined. Methods: TYLCV infected tomato was collected from Hormozgan province. Total D...
متن کاملActive and Direct Active Monitoring of Travelers Returning from Countries that Experienced Widespread Transmission of Ebola Virus Disease, Rhode Island, October 2014-December 2015.
BACKGROUND Ebola Virus Disease (Ebola) is a viral hemorrhagic fever that causes severe illness and can be fatal. Symptoms present 2 to 21 days after exposure to the Ebola virus and include: sudden onset of fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, and fatigue, followed by vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain and unexplained bleeding or bruising.1 In December 2013, an outbreak of Ebola began ...
متن کاملRapid outbreak sequencing of Ebola virus in Sierra Leone identifies transmission chains linked to sporadic cases
To end the largest known outbreak of Ebola virus disease (EVD) in West Africa and to prevent new transmissions, rapid epidemiological tracing of cases and contacts was required. The ability to quickly identify unknown sources and chains of transmission is key to ending the EVD epidemic and of even greater importance in the context of recent reports of Ebola virus (EBOV) persistence in survivors...
