Comparative genomics of Japanese encephalitis virus shows low rates of recombination and a suite of sites under episodic diversifying selection
2023-06-16
Abstract excerpt
Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is the dominant cause of viral encephalitis in the Asian region with 100,000 cases and 25,000 deaths reported annually. The genome is comprised of a single polyprotein that encodes three structural and seven non-structural proteins. We collated a dataset of 347 complete genomes from a number of public databases, and analysed the data for recombination, evolutionary selection and p...
