Phylogenetic analysis and phenotypic characterisatics of two Tibet EV-C96 strains.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Enterovirus C96 (EV-C96) is a newly named type of enterovirus belonging to species C, and the prototype strain (BAN00-10488) was firstly isolated in 2000 from a stool specimen of a patient with acute flaccid paralysis in Bangladesh. In this study, we report the genomic and phenotypic characteristics of two EV-C96 strains isolated from individuals from the Tibet Autonomous Region of China. METHODS:Human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD), human laryngeal epidermoid carcinoma (HEp-2), and human cervical cancer (Hela) cells were infected with the Tibet EV-C96 strains, and enterovirus RNA in the cell culture was detected with a real time RT-PCR-based enterovirus screening method. The temperature sensitivity of Tibet EV-C96 strains were assayed on a monolayer of RD cells in 24-well plates. Full-length genome sequencing was performed by a 'primer-walking' strategy, and the evolutionary history of EV-C96 was studied by maximum likelihood analysis. RESULTS:Strain 2005-T49 grew in all three kinds of cells, and it was not temperature sensitive. In contrast, none of the three cells produced CPE for strain 2012-94H. Phylogenetic analysis of the two Tibetan viruses, other EV-C96 strains, and EV-C prototypes showed that EV-C96 strains were grouped into three clusters (Cluster1-3) based on their VP1 sequences, which may represent three genotypes. Phylogenetic trees based on the P2 and P3 regions highlighted the difference between Chinese EV-C96 strains and the EV-C96 prototype strain BAN-10488. All Chinese strains formed a cluster separate from BAN-10488, which clustered with CV-A1/CV-A22/CV-A19. CONCLUSIONS:There is genetic variability between EV-C96 strains which suggest that at least few genetic lineages co-exist and there has been some degree of circulation in different geographical regions for some time. Some recombination events must have occurred during EV-C96 evolution as EV-C96 isolates cluster with different EV-C prototype strains in phylogenetic trees in different genomic regions. However, recombination does not seem to have occurred frequently as EV-C96 isolates from different years and locations appear to cluster together in all genomic regions analysed. These findings expand the understanding of the characterization of EV-C96 and are meaningful for the surveillance of the virus.
