Key result
Novel recombinant echovirus 24 strain is fully sequenced from a hand-foot-and-mouth disease case in China.
Provides the complete genome sequence of a novel recombinant echovirus 24 strain associated with hand-foot-and-mouth disease in China.
Recombinant echovirus 24 in HFMD warrants continued genomic surveillance; extends known diversity but leaves open clinical and epidemiologic significance.
Echovirus 24 belongs to human enterovirus B species in the family Picornaviridae. Here, we report the whole-genome sequences of a novel complete genome sequence of a recombinant (echovirus 24) Echo 24 strain, PZ18/JS/2012, which was isolated from a patient with hand-foot-and-mouth disease in China.
