Comparative analysis of the partial EP402R gene of isolates within this study with other isolates with known serotypes. The seven repeats were separated between repeats four and five in 94.60% of the isolates by the SPPKPC and RPPPKC amino acid sequences, while CMR/Douala_SL6/2020, CMR/Douala_SL14/2020 and CMR/Douala_SL4/2020 had the SPPK-------PC thus lacking PCRPPK in between. Furthermore, isolates with the six and five PPPKPC amino acid repeats were both separated between repeats three and three and repeats four and five, respectively, by SPPKPC and RPPPKC amino acid sequence. We compared the isolates with other isolates from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Angola, Mozambique, and France with a determined number of repeats and known serotypes and found the seven PPPKPC amino acid repeats of this study clustered in serotype IV along with the isolate from France, but the five and six repeats did not cluster in any of the known serogroups.
