Hepatitis E virus genotype 1 (HEV-1) is associated with large epidemics. Notably, HEV subtype 1e (HEV-1e) has caused HEV outbreaks in sub-Saharan Africa. We report here the second full-length genome sequence of an HEV-1e strain (NG/17-0503) from a recent outbreak in Nigeria in 2017. It shares 94.2% identity with an HEV-1e strain from Chad.
戊型肝炎病毒1型(HEV-1)与大规模流行有关。值得注意的是,HEV亚型1e(HEV-1e)已在撒哈拉以南非洲地区引发戊型肝炎疫情。我们在此报告2017年在尼日利亚近期一次疫情中分离出的一株HEV-1e毒株(NG/17-0503)的第二个全长基因组序列。它与来自乍得的一株HEV-1e毒株具有94.2%的同源性。
