Abstract

•The recent A-Iran-05 viruses circulating in middle East do not match with the existing vaccine strains.•We have generated full capsid sequence of 51 A-Iran-05 viruses and their corresponding antigenic (serological) relationship (r1) values using antisera raised against A22 and A/TUR/2006 vaccine.•Analysis of the data to correlate genotype to antigenic phenotype revealed amino acid changes in neutralising antigenic sites.
