Figure 6. Dengue virus prM and E protein sequence alignments of Dengvaxia and TetraVax-DV-TV003 vaccine strains (boldface) and 2017 Burkina Faso dengue virus outbreak genomes for serotypes 1, 2, and 3. Only amino acid positions with disagreements are shown; single-point disagreements are highlighted. For clarity, prM protein sequences are shaded in red. Numerals represent the prM and E protein amino acid position. CYD, Dengvaxia vaccine; DENV-1, dengue virus serotype 1; DENV-2, dengue virus serotype 2; DENV-3, dengue virus serotype 3; E, envelope; prM, premembrane; TV003, TetraVax-DV-TV003 vaccine.
