Abstract | BACKGROUND Human herpesvirus 2 (HHV-2) have DNA genome with a limited genetic variability and have been classified
into two clades.
OBJECTIVES To identify and characterise six HHV-2 isolates derived from Brazilian women.
METHODS HHV-2 isolates were performed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing of 2250 pb of the glycoprotein B
(gB) coding regions.
FINDINGS Four HHV-2 isolates were classified into clade B, while the remaining two, derived from HIV-1 co-infected women,
showed a notable genetic divergence (> 1%).
MAIN CONCLUSION The results reveal novel HHV-2 variants. The impact of these novel variants on HHV-2 pathogenesis and
HIV/HHV-2 coinfection need to be investigated.. | pt_BR |
