Abstract | Chandipura virus (CHPV) is found to be associated with sporadic encephalitis outbreaks in humans in India since 1965. We report here, the investigation of CHPV activity during the period of June-August 2015 in the state of Gujarat, which revealed 24.44% positivity among 45 referred encephalitis cases. Phylogenetic study of the G gene sequences of strains from Gujarat 2015 along with available sequences of additional strains from different geographical locations and isolation years (1965-2015), indicated the relatedness of the 2015 strain to a group of the CHPV prototype strain of 1965 and the earliest outbreak strains of 2003. Analyses of selection pressure in the G gene revealed positively selected sites within the signal peptide region and a putative CHPV epitope. These results indicate a probable role of G protein-based immune selection and underline the need for continued surveillance to monitor genetic and antigenic variations in the CHPV. |
