Abstract excerpt
Abstract An Asian/American lineage Zika virus (ZIKV) strain ZIKV/Hu/S36/Chiba/2016 formed 2 types in plaque size, large and small. Genomic analysis of the plaque-forming clones obtained from the isolate indicated that the clones forming small plaques commonly had an adenine nucleotide at position 796 (230Gln in the amino acid sequence), while clones forming large plaques had a guanine nucleotide (230Arg) at the...
