Epidemiology, Transmission, and Evolution of Japanese Encephalitis Virus.

ABSTRACT: The Japanese encephalitis virus is an arbovirus that causes severe damage to the central nervous system. At present, there are still 67,900 cases of Japanese encephalitis worldwide every year, which poses a global public health concern and causes great economic losses to animal husbandry. In this study, we analyzed the epidemiology, transmission, and evolution of JEV based on the NCBI database. E and NS1 were emphatically analyzed for amino acid variation and predicted protein structure. Gene recombination and the evolutionary rate of JEV were analyzed using RDP 4 and BEAST. The maximum clade credibility tree of E was reconstructed to estimate the time of the most recent common ancestor. Chinese genotype Ⅰ (GI) strain recombination events occurred in the C, M/PrM, E, NS2A, NS4B, and NS5 pr
