Recombinant Human Enterovirus 71 in Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease Patients

Two human enterovirus 71 (HEV71) isolates were identified from hand, foot and mouth disease patients with genome sequences that had high similarity to HEV71 (>93%) at 5′UTR, P1, and P2 and coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16, >85%) at P3 and 3′UTR. Intertypic recombination is likely to have occurred be...
