Molecular epidemiology and recombination of enterovirus D68 in China

In this study, it was found that the dominant amino acid composition of the BC-loop and DE-loop continued to change with the epidemic of the virus; the amino acid composition also differed in different regions of the same genotypes. The ongoing genomic and molecular epidemiology of EV-D68 remains important for predicting emergence of new viruses and preventing major outbreaks of respiratory diseases.PMID:37827347 | DOI:10.1016/j.meegid.2023.105512
