Genetic analysis of measles virus nucleocapsid gene identifies measles virus isolate of close similarity to Clade A viruses from Nigeria

2018-02-07

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies on the molecular epidemiology of measles virus in Nigeria shows that genotype B3 clusters 1 and 2 are the circulating measles genotype. We report the isolation of measles virus strain of close similarity to reference genotype A measles virus strain from Ibadan, Nigeria. Molecular characterization of a measles virus isolate from a child presenting with fever and rash in a hospital in Ibadan, Nigeri...
