Complete Genome Sequence of a Swiss Hepatitis E Virus Isolate from the Liver of a Fattening Pig
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present here the full-length genome sequence of a hepatitis E genotype 3 virus (HEV-3) isolate, CH_VW117, from the liver of a healthy fattening pig collected at the slaughter level. Sequence analysis implies that this strain belongs to the newly proposed HEV subtype 3s.

Complete Genome Sequences of Two Swiss Hepatitis E Virus Isolates from Human Stool and Raw Pork Sausage
We present here the full-length genome sequences of two hepatitis E virus genotype 3 (HEV-3) isolates from a human stool sample from a patient with acute hepatitis and a raw sausage containing pig liver. Sequence analysis implies that Swiss HEV isolates may form a novel subgroup of HEV-3 viruses.
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 کاملA new subtype of hepatitis C virus genotype 1: complete genome and phylogenetic relationships of an Equatorial Guinea isolate.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the leading cause of chronic liver disease and is associated with hepatocellular carcinoma. However, there have been few studies on the distribution and genetic diversity of HCV isolates in non-developed countries. Here, the complete genome sequence of an HCV genotype 1 isolate from Equatorial Guinea is reported, the first complete HCV-1 genome of African origin. Phyl...
متن کاملSequence-based genotyping of hepatitis B virus in general popula-tion
Background: Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) causes acute and chronic liver disease worldwide. HBV has eight genotypes (A to H) which is the reflection of its genome with their characteristic geographical distribution. Each genotype could have different pathogenic and therapeutic characteristics. There have been few records on HBV genotyping in general population from our region. This study aimed to...
متن کاملCloning and expression of hepatitis E virus ORF2 as a vaccine candidate
Introduction: Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a fecal-oral transmitting virus which causes a chronic liver disease. ORF2 is an immunogen capsid protein of HEV that has been proposed to be used for Hepatitis E vaccine design. It is a 660-amino acid protein which includes an immunogenic region (residues 112-607). This protein has been expressed in complete and truncated forms, using different expressi...
