Characterization and complete genome sequences of high- and low-virulence variants of tick-borne encephalitis virus
1 May 1996
Abstract excerpt
The entire genomic sequences of two strains (Hypr and 263) of the flavivirus tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus differing in virulence from the prototypic strain Neudoerfl were determined. Strain Hypr is a human isolate of TBE virus with a high laboratory passage history which exhibits a significantly higher neuro-invasiveness in mice compared to the prototype strain. Strain 263 is a low-passage tick-isolate...
