Abstract excerpt
To study the genetic variability and to detect evolutionary changes and movement of dengue 2 (DEN-2) strains, nucleotide sequencing of the envelope protein gene and the nonstructural protein 1 gene junction was performed for 9 isolates from the 1996 Delhi epidemic and 1 isolate from the 1967 Delhi epidemic. The epidemic strains had a divergence of 10%-11% from the 1967 strains, but were quite similar to DEN-2...
