Whole genome characterization of reassortant G10P[11] strain (N155) from a neonate with symptomatic rotavirus infection: Identification of genes of human and animal rotavirus origin

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Rotavirus G10P[11] strains have long been associated with asymptomatic neonatal infections in some parts of India. We have previously reported G10P[11] strains associated with both asymptomatic infections and severe gastrointestinal disease in neonates from Vellore in southern India, with >90% partial nucleotide and amino acid identity to the VP4, VP6, VP7 and NSP4 genes of the exclusively...
