Abstract

We have determined the complete nucleotide sequence and the deduced amino acid polypeptide sequence of the genome of a dengue-1 (DEN-1) virus strain isolated from a patient on Nauru in the Western Pacific in 1974 (West Pac 74). The complete genome is 10,735 nucleotides in length and contains a single long open reading frame of 10,176 nucleotides encoding a polyprotein of 3392 amino acids. When compared to DEN-1 Singapore S275/90, the nucleotide and amino acid sequence homology are 94% and 97.8%, respectively.
