Complete genome sequence of dengue virus serotype 2 Cosmopolitan genotype strain in Guangdong, China

J Virol. 2012 Dec;86(24):13808-9. doi: 10.1128/JVI.02562-12.

Abstract

Here we report the complete genome sequence of a dengue virus serotype 2 (DENV-2) strain, GZ40, isolated in Guangdong, China, in 2010. A phylogenetic analysis classified GZ40 into the Cosmopolitan genotype, while previous Chinese DENV-2 isolates belong to the Asian I genotype. The reemergence of the Cosmopolitan genotype of DENV-2 in China deserves further investigation.
