Methods According to the nucleotide sequence of dengue virus type 2 reference strain NGC, 6 pairs of overlapping primers covering 43 strains of dengue virus type 2 were designed by using DNASTAR software. The viral genomic RNA was extracted from the brains of 43 neonates infected with dengue virus type 2, and 6 gene fragments were amplified respectively by RT PCR and ligated with pGEM T vector respectively. The recombinant plasmids were rapidly identified by PCR and sequenced in a Model 377A automated sequencer. Then using a single restriction enzyme site, each gene fragment was excised from positive recombinants, 5 ’and 3’ half molecules were ligated in vitro, and finally the 5 ’and 3’ half molecules were ligated into the entire genome length CDNA. A total of 45 7 ~ 6 91bp DNA fragments were amplified on both sides of each linker, then ligated to T vector and sequenced to identify the full-length cDNA. Results A total of 6 gene fragments of ~ 15 ~ 25kb were amplified and ligated in vitro to obtain the full-length cDNA. Conclusion The full-length cDNA of 43 strains of dengue 2 virus was successfully constructed by sequencing. The results of this study will lay the foundation for elucidating the virulence and pathogenesis of Dengue virus strains in China.
