Mini Review Picobirnavirus: a Putative Emerging Threat to Humans And
Advances in Animal and Veterinary Sciences Mini Review Picobirnavirus: A Putative Emerging Threat to Humans and Animals JOBIN JOSE KATTOOR, SHUBHANKAR SIRCAR, SHARAD SAURAB, SHANMUGANATHAN SUBRAMANIYAN, KULDEEP DHAMA, YASHPAL SINGH MALIK* ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar 243122, Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, India. Abstract | Diarrheal diseases remain fatal threat to human and animal population with the emergence of new types of pathogens. Among them, viral gastroenteritis plays a lion share with a number ranging over 100 different types including emerging and re-emerging types of viruses. Recent viral metagenomics studies confirm the co-existence of viruses in gastrointestinal tract of several different host species. A Picobirnavirus, consisting of 2 segments, has recently attained attention due to its wide host range and genetic variability. Until 2011, these small viruses were not consid- ered as a separate virus family, when a new family (Picobirnaviridae) was approved by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV). Currently two distinct genogroups (GG-I and GG-II) and one predicted genogroup (GG-III) are included in the Picobirnaviridae family. Recently, picobirnavirus infections have been reported from al- most all species including wild animals where persistent infection of the virus is also reported. Picobirnaviruses (PBVs) are also reported as opportunistic pathogens in immuno compromised hosts including HIV infected patients. Presence of atypical picobirnaviruses with shorter genomic segments along with genetic closeness of animal and human PBVs and its ability to infect immuno-compromised hosts pose a heavy threat for all human and animal. Currently RNA dependent RNA polymerase based RT-PCR detection is considered as a rapid and sensitive method for detection of PBV. -

Abstract Aim: This study aimed to study the prevalence of the coinfection of enteric bacterial and viral pathogens, namely Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Rotavirus, and Picobirnavirus from fecal samples of pre-weaned piglets in Northeast region of India. Materials and Methods: A total of 457 fresh fecal samples were collected from piglets under 9 weeks old during 2013-2015 from organized (n=225) and unorganized (n=232) farms of Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, and Nagaland. Samples were collected from diarrheic (n =339) and non-diarrheic (n=118) piglets including local indigenous (n=130) and crossbreed (n=327) piglets in different seasons during the study period. The samples were processed for the isolation of E. coli and Salmonella and detection of their putative virulence genes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). -

This provides the advantage to Enteric viral infections adapt the new changes for better survival, increasing pathogenicity and even learning ability to jump Rotavirus species barriers. Usually, zoonotic viral infections involve more than one host which make them more serious threat to the surrounding inter-genus species. Zoonotic infection also helps in understanding the Astrovirus evolutionary course adopted by the causative virus. The virus sequence based phyloanalysis has given better methods for comparative evaluation of the viral genomes in the probability of transmissions and Calicivirus diversity. Several animal hosts have been identified as reservoirs and for their potential zoonotic Hepatitis virus transmission abilities. The early and accurate diagnosis of emerging and re-emerging zoonotic viruses becomes inevitable to restrict and to establish correlation with the spread of these viral infections in Picobirnavirus different milieus. -

Understanding the Genetic Diversity of Picobirnavirus: a Classification Update Based on Phylogenetic and Pairwise Sequence Comparison Approaches

Cloherty and Michael G. Berg Infectious Diseases Research, Abbott Diagnostics, Abbott Park, IL 60064, USA; [email protected] (G.A.C.); [email protected] (M.G.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-224-668-7501 Abstract: Picobirnaviruses (PBVs) are small, double stranded RNA viruses with an ability to infect a myriad of hosts and possessing a high degree of genetic diversity. PBVs are currently classified into two genogroups based upon classification of a 200 nt sequence of RdRp. We demonstrate here that this phylogenetic marker is saturated, affected by homoplasy, and has high phylogenetic noise, resulting in 34% unsolved topologies. By contrast, full-length RdRp sequences provide reliable topologies that allow ancestralism of members to be correctly inferred. MAFFT alignment and maximum likelihood trees were established as the optimal methods to determine phylogenetic relationships, providing complete resolution of PBV RdRp and capsid taxa, each into three monophyletic groupings. Pairwise distance calculations revealed these lineages represent three species. For RdRp, the application of cutoffs determined by theoretical taxonomic distributions indicates that there are five genotypes Citation: Perez, L.J.; Cloherty, G.A.; in species 1, eight genotypes in species 2, and three genotypes in species 3.

VIEW Open Access the Porcine Virome and Xenotransplantation Joachim Denner
Denner Virology Journal (2017) 14:171 DOI 10.1186/s12985-017-0836-z REVIEW Open Access The porcine virome and xenotransplantation Joachim Denner Abstract The composition of the porcine virome includes viruses that infect pig cells, ancient virus-derived elements including endogenous retroviruses inserted in the pig chromosomes, and bacteriophages that infect a broad array of bacteria that inhabit pigs. Viruses infecting pigs, among them viruses also infecting human cells, as well as porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) are of importance when evaluating the virus safety of xenotransplantation. Bacteriophages associated with bacteria mainly in the gut are not relevant in this context. Xenotransplantation using pig cells, tissues or organs is under development in order to alleviate the shortage of human transplants. Here for the first time published data describing the viromes in different pigs and their relevance for the virus safety of xenotransplantation is analysed. In conclusion, the analysis of the porcine virome has resulted in numerous new viruses being described, although their impact on xenotransplantation is unclear. Most importantly, viruses with known or suspected zoonotic potential were often not detected by next generation sequencing, but were revealed by more sensitive methods.

Box 56 (Viikinkaari 5), 00014 Helsinki, Finland. Abstract: RNA viruses are the fastest evolving known biological entities. Consequently, the sequence similarity between homologous viral proteins disappears quickly, limiting the usability of traditional sequence-based phylogenetic methods in the reconstruction of relationships and evolutionary history among RNA viruses. Protein structures, however, typically evolve more slowly than sequences, and structural similarity can still be evident, when no sequence similarity can be detected. Here, we used an automated structural comparison method, homologous structure finder, for comprehensive comparisons of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRps). We identified a common structural core of 231 residues for all the structurally characterized viral RdRps, covering segmented and non-segmented negative-sense, positive-sense, and double-stranded RNA viruses infecting both prokaryotic and eukaryotic hosts. The grouping and branching of the viral RdRps in the structure- based phylogenetic tree follow their functional differentiation. The RdRps using protein primer, RNA primer, or self-priming mechanisms have evolved independently of each other, and the RdRps cluster into two large branches based on the used transcription mechanism. -
