We report the complete genome sequence of a rabies virus obtained by direct metagenomics from the cerebellum of a gold panner who died of unknown encephalitis in French Guiana. Phylogenetic analysis exhibited a close genetic relationship with vampire bat-related isolates, confirming the second case of human rabies identified in this territory.
我们报告了一株狂犬病病毒的完整基因组序列,该病毒是通过直接宏基因组学方法从法属圭亚那一名死于不明脑炎的淘金者的小脑中获得的。系统发育分析显示,该病毒与吸血蝙蝠相关的分离株具有密切的遗传关系,证实了该地区确诊的第二例人类狂犬病病例。
