Genotyping of rubella virus circulating in Western Siberia of Russia during 2004 — 2006 epidemic period

State Research Center of Virology and Biotechnology "Vector", Koltsovo, Novosibirsk region, Russia

Twenty one strains of rubella virus were isolated in the Western Siberia during 2004 — 2006 epidemic period. Genotyping of isolated strains was performed by partial sequencing of glycoprotein E1 gene. Phylogenetic analy-sis showed that 20 out of 21 isolated in the Western Siberia strains of rubella virus belonged to genotype 1g, and 1 strain (isolated in Altai region in 2006) – to genotype 1E.
