Abstract Background: A massive outbreak of dengue-like illness was reported from Pune district of Maharashtra, India during May-June 2022. Isolation and characterization of the etiological agent at genomic level for possible mutations that led to higher transmissibility is the topic of the study. Methods: Entomological investigations were carried out by ICMR-National Institute of Virology (Pune, India); Aedes aegypti mosquitoes were collected and processed for virus detection by molecular techniques. Positive mosquito pools were processed for virus isolation in cell culture. Sanger sequencing and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) using Oxford Nanopore Technology platform were used for genomic characterization. Results: Reverse transcriptase RT-PCR and qRT-PCR analysis detected chikungunya virus (CHIKV) in mosquito samples. Six CHIKV isolates were obtained. WGS revealed four nonsynonymous mutations in the structural polyprotein region, and five in the nonstructural polyprotein encoding region when compared with Yawat-2000 and Shivane-2016 strains. Sixty-four nucleotide changes in the nonstructural polyprotein region and 35 in the structural polyprotein region were detected. One isolate had an exclusive amino acid change, T1123I, in the nsP2 (protease) region. Conclusion: Abundant Ae. aegypti breeding and detection of CHIKV RNA in mosquitoes confirmed it as a chikungunya outbreak. Novel mutations detected in the epidemic strain warrants investigations to address their role in disease severity, transmission, and fitness.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
