Abstract

Dengue infection remains poorly characterized in Africa and little is known regarding its associated viral genetic diversity. Here, we report dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) sequence data from 10 clinical samples, including 5 complete genome sequences of the cosmopolitan genotype, obtained from febrile adults seeking outpatient care in coastal Kenya.

Highlights

  • Dengue infection remains poorly characterized in Africa and little is known regarding its associated viral genetic diversity

  • Insertions, or premature stop codons were identified within the polyprotein-coding region
