NS2B/NS3 mutations enhance the infectivity of genotype I Japanese encephalitis virus in amplifying hosts
5 Aug 2019
Abstract excerpt
Genotype I (GI) virus has replaced genotype III (GIII) virus as the dominant Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in the epidemic area of Asia. The mechanism underlying the genotype replacement remains unclear. Therefore, we focused our current study on investigating the roles of mosquito vector and amplifying host(s) in JEV genotype replacement by comparing the replication ability of GI and GIII viruses. GI and...
