Zika Virus Infection, Philippines, 2012 (http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/21/4/14-1707)

摘要

Zika virus (ZIKV), a mosquitoborne flavivirus, was first isolated from a rhesus monkey in Uganda in 1947 ( 1 ). This positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus (family Flaviviridae , genus Flavivirus ) has a 10,794-nt genome and is most closely related to Spondweni virus ( 2 , 3 ). Phylogenetic analyses have revealed 2 major lineages: Asian and African ( 2 – 4 ).
