ABSTRACT Using target capture of viral nucleic acid and next-generation sequencing, we generated the genome sequences of three novel human parainfluenza virus 2 isolates. Isolates ACRI_0185 (GenBank accession number MF077311), ACRI_0230 (MF077312), and ACRI_0248 (MF077313) were collected in October 2016, February 2017, and March 2017, respectively, from pediatric patients with acute respiratory infection in Arkansas.

Using target capture of viral nucleic acid and next-generation sequencing, we generated the complete genomes of two novel human parainfluenza virus 1 isolates. Isolates AR001 (accession no. KX570602) and NM001 (accession no. KX639498) were collected 3 months apart from pediatric patients with acute respiratory infection from Arkansas and New Mexico, respectively.

AbstractDuring 2017–2018, nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPAs) from 627 hospitalized patients with severe acute respiratory infection at Luohe Center Hospital were tested by RT-PCR for human parainfluenza virus 4 (HPIV-4). Fourteen (2.2%) of the 627 samples were positive for HPIV-4. The complete HN gene was amplified from nine positive samples and sequenced. Sequence comparisons showed that the HPIV-4 strains circulating in the city of Luohe are closely related to HPIV-4A strains. Our study indicated that there were multiple lineages of HPIV-4 circulating in Henan Province in China during the study period. This will improve our understanding of the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of HPIV-4.

Abstract During 2017–2018, Nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPAs) from 627 hospitalized patients with SARI at Luohe Center Hospital were tested by RT-PCR for human parainfluenza virus 4(HPIV-4). 14 (2.2%) of 627 samples were positive for HPIV-4. The complete nucleotide sequence of the HN gene from 9 positive samples was amplified and sequenced successfully. Genetic analysis showed that the HPIV-4 strains circulating in Luohe city are more closely related to HPIV-4A. Our study indicated that there were multiple lineages of HPIV-4 circulating in Henan Province in China during the study period, which will improve our understanding of the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of HPIV-4.
