Abstract Chikungunya, a mosquito-borne disease caused by Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), continues to be a significant public health problem in India. In 2016, 56 000 cases were reported from India, the largest number since the reemergence of CHIKV in this region in 2006. In the present study, using molecular and phylogenetic methods, the circulating strains from southern India during 2015-2016 were characterized in the context of circulating Asian strains. Partial envelope gene (E1) sequencing was performed on 20 serum samples positive for CHIKV by a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all the sequences in this study belonged to the East Central South African (ECSA) genotype and clustered together with other strains from India. Bayesian phylogenetic analysis revealed that the sequences from the study grouped into two different subclades. The estimate of divergence times suggests that subclades of the ECSA genotype, share a common ancestor approximately 4 to 12 years ago. Six nonsynonymous mutations-K211E, M269V, D284E, V322A, I317V and V220I were noted in E1. In conclusion, this study revealed the cocirculation of distinct subclades within the ECSA genotype of CHIKV in South India during 2015-2016. The I317V mutation in E1 has only been described in recent CHIKV strains from north-central India and Bangladesh. This study highlights the need for continued molecular surveillance to identify the emergence of novel strains and unique mutations in CHIKV with epidemic potential.

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
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
