Evidence for Frequent Recombination within SpeciesHuman Enterovirus BBased on Complete Genomic Sequences of All Thirty-Seven Serotypes [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe speciesHuman enterovirus B(HEV-B) in the familyPicornaviridaeconsists of coxsackievirus A9; coxsackieviruses B1 to B6; echoviruses 1 to 7, 9, 11 to 21, 24 to 27, and 29 to 33; and enteroviruses 69 and 73. We have determined complete genome sequences for the remaining 22 HEV-B serotypes whose sequences were not represented in public ...

Antibodies to Enteroviruses in Cerebrospinal Fluid of Patients with Acute Flaccid Myelitis. [PDF]
Acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) has caused motor paralysis in >560 children in the United States since 2014. The temporal association of enterovirus (EV) outbreaks with increases in AFM cases and reports of fever, respiratory, or gastrointestinal illness

Genetic characterization of human coxsackievirus A6 variants associated with atypical hand, foot and mouth disease: a potential role of recombination in emergence and pathogenicity [PDF]
Human coxsackievirus A6 (CVA6) is an enterically transmitted enterovirus. Until recently, CVA6 infections were considered as being of minor clinical significance, and only rarely aetiologically linked with hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) associated ...

Monitoring antigenic variations of enterovirus 71: implications for virus surveillance and vaccine development. [PDF]
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) causes life-threatening epidemics in Asia and can be phylogenetically classified into three major genogroups (A ∼ C) including 11 genotypes (A, B1 ∼ B5, and C1 ∼ C5).

The complete nucleotide sequences of eight Human enterovirus B (HEV-B) strains were determined, representing five serotypes, E6, E7, E11, CVB3 and CVB5, which were isolated in the former Soviet Union between 1998 and 2002. All strains were mosaic recombinants and only the VP2–VP3–VP1 genome region was similar to that of the corresponding prototype HEV ...

Analysis of the Serotype and Genotype Correlation of VP1 and the 5′ Noncoding Region in an Epidemiological Survey of the Human Enterovirus B Species [PDF]
ABSTRACT The sequence identity of the enterovirus VP1 gene has been shown to correlate with the serotype concept. Enterovirus molecular typing methods are therefore often based on sequencing of the VP1 genomic region and monophyletic clustering of VP1 sequences of a homologous serotype.
