  • Title: [Molecular genetic characteristics of tick-borne encephalitis virus in the crimea].
    Author: Iurchenko OA, Vinograd NA, Dubina DA.
    Journal: Vopr Virusol; 2012; 57(3):40-3. PubMed ID: 22905427.
    Abstract:
    The nucleotide sequences of the envelope (E) protein gene of three tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) strains 80, 85, and 290 isolated from Ixodes ricinus ticks in the Crimea in 1989-1990 were determined. A comparative analysis of the genetic structure of the strains showed their identity. A phylogenetic analysis of these strains with 34 other TBEV strains could assign them to the European genotype and showed their maximum (97.24%) identity to the Pan strain that occupies a separate position among the sequenced TBEV strains. The findings indicate that the TBEV European genotype strains circulated together with the TBEV Far Eastern genotype ones in the Crimea in 1980-1990.
