          Abstract

          We report here the complete genome sequence of Mayaro virus strain BeAr 20290 isolated from Haemagogus mosquitoes in 1960. The sequence presented here includes all nonstructural and structural proteins and the 5′- and 3′-untranslated (UTR) regions.

            Emerging alphaviruses in the Americas: Chikungunya and Mayaro

            Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and Mayaro virus (MAYV) are emergent arthropod-borne viruses that produce outbreaks of acute febrile illness with arthropathy. Despite their different continental origins, CHIKV and MAYV are closely related and are components of the Semliki Forest Complex of the Alphavirus (Togaviridae). MAYV and, more recently, CHIKV, which are both transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, have resulted in severe public health problems in the Americas, including Brazil. In this review, we present aspects of the pathogenesis, clinical presentation and treatment of febrile illnesses produced by CHIKV and MAYV. We also discuss the epidemiological aspects and effects related to the prophylaxis of infections by both viruses.
