Key result
Complete genome sequencing of a human enterovirus 85 isolate from a child with acute flaccid paralysis revealed a natural intertypic recombination with an undescribed HEV-B serotype.
The study reports the complete genome sequence of a novel HEV85 recombinant isolated from a child with acute flaccid paralysis, highlighting a natural intertypic recombination event.
Novel recombinant HEV85 in AFP supports expanded genomic surveillance; leaves open its prevalence, pathogenicity, and clinical impact.
A Chinese human enterovirus 85 (HEV85) isolate, HTYT-ARL-AFP02F/XJ/CHN/2011, was isolated from a stool specimen of a child with acute flaccid paralysis in Xinjiang, China, in 2011. The complete genome sequence revealed that a natural intertypic recombination event had occurred between HEV85 and a previously undescribed serotype of HEV-B.
