SHINING A SPOTLIGHT ON AFRICAN RESEARCH

First complete genome sequence of circulating dengue virus serotype 3 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

New Microbes and New Infections, Volume 21, Year 2018

Here we report the first full-length genome sequence of dengue virus serotype 3 (DENV-3) from a strain isolated from a patient in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in 2014. The genome consists of 10 635 bp and shows close similarity to circulating genotype III isolates from Singapore, suggesting possible importation, most probably during religious pilgrimages to Saudi Arabia.
