Genomic Annotation and Molecular Evolution of Monkeypox Virus Outbreak in 2022

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

ABSTRACT

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) has generally circulated in West and Central Africa since its emergence. Recently, sporadic MPXV infections in several non-endemic countries have attracted widespread attention. Here, we conducted a systematic analysis of the recent outbreak of MPXV-2022, including its genomic annotation and molecular evolution. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that the MPXV-2022 strains belong to the same lineage of the MPXV strain isolated in 2018. However, compared with the MPXV strain in 2018, in total 46 new consensus mutations were observed in the MPXV-2022 strains, including 24 non-synonymous mutations. By assigning mutations to 187 proteins encoded by the MPXV genome, we found that ten proteins in the monkeypox virus are more prone to mutation, including D2L-like, OPG023, OPG047, OPG071, OPG105, OPG109, A27L-like, OPG153, OPG188, and OPG210 proteins. In the MPXV-2022 strains, 4 and 3 nucleotide substitutions are observed in OPG105 and OPG210 , respectively. Overall, our studies illustrated the genome evolution of the ongoing MPXV outbreak and pointed out novel mutations as a reference for further studies.
