Sequencing and Analysis on Whole Genome of Senecavirus CH/ZZ/2016 Strain
In order to identify the whole genome sequence of senecavirus SVA/CH/ZZ/2016 strain,four pairs of overlapping specific primers were designed to amplify gene fragments. The amplified products were cloned into pCE2TA/Blunt-Zero vector for sequencing. The whole genome of SVA/CH/ZZ/2016 strain was obtained after splicing and correction. The results showed that the total genome length of the strain was 7 292 bp,including 5'UTR(670 bp),ORF(6 546 bp)and 3'UTR(76 bp). Other 9 reference strains both at home and abroad were selected and compared with the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of 12 genes in coding region. It was found that the nucleotide homology was highest in 3B gene,minimum in VP1 gene,and remained 85.2% to 100% in other genes. By phylogenetic analysis,it was shown that SVA/CH/ZZ/2016 strain had the closest genetic relationship with American isolates USAIL_Purdue_43_2016 and USAIN_Purdue_3698_2016,shared the same evolutionary branch,and was with largest evolutionary distance with the original strain SVV-001,a total of 10 amino acid differences were found. Therefore,the basic data was provided for further study on SVA molecular biology and epidemiological investigation.
