Figure 2. SNPs within the two clusters of Singapore VZV strains.

Figure 2

VZV strains were collected from school children with varicella in Singapore (Chow et al, 1993; Wagenaar et al, 2003). Three of the sequenced VZV ORFs from these strains are illustrated in the figure. One cluster of Singapore VZV strains segregates with the Japanese VZV Oka clade, originally called clade B and now renamed clade 2. The other Singapore cluster resembles clade C viruses, now renamed clade 4. Black bars indicate nonsynonymous SNPs and white bars indicate synonymous SNPs.
