| a novel human polyomavirus closely related to the african green monkey-derived lymphotropic polyomavirus. | we identified a novel human polyomavirus from a kidney transplant patient under immunosuppressive treatment, by use of a generic pcr. the genome of the virus was completely amplified and sequenced. in phylogenetic analyses, it appeared as the closest relative to the african green monkey-derived lymphotropic polyomavirus (lpv). further investigation of clinical samples from immunocompromised patients with specific nested pcr revealed additional positive samples, indicating that the virus naturall ... | 2011 | 21307194 |
| human polyomavirus related to african green monkey lymphotropic polyomavirus. | while studying the virome of the skin surface of a patient with a merkel cell carcinoma (mcc) by using unbiased, high-throughput sequencing, we identified a human polyomavirus nearly identical to human polyomavirus 9, a virus recently reported in blood and urine of renal transplantion patients and closely related to the african green monkey lymphotropic polyomavirus. specific pcr analysis further identified this virus in 2/8 patients with mcc but in only 1/111 controls without mcc. this virus wa ... | 2011 | 21801611 |
| seroprevalence of the human polyomavirus 9 (hpyv9) and cross-reactivity to the african green monkey-derived lymphotropic polyomavirus (lpv). | human polyomavirus 9 (hpyv9) was recently discovered in immunocompromised patients and shown to be genetically closely related to the b-lymphotropic polyomavirus (lpyv). no serological data are available for hpyv9, but human antibodies against lpyv have been reported previously. to investigate the seroepidemiology of hpyv9 and the sero-crossreactivity between hpyv9 and lpyv, a capsomer-based igg elisa was established using the major capsid proteins vp1 of hpyv9 and lpyv. vp1 of an avian polyomav ... | 2012 | 22218677 |
| detection and genome characterization of two novel papillomaviruses and a novel polyomavirus in tree shrew (tupaia belangeri chinensis) in china. | papillomaviruses (pvs) and polyomaviruses (pyvs) infect diverse vertebrates including human and cause a broad spectrum of outcomes from asymptomatic infection to severe disease. there has been no pv and only one pyv detected in tree shrews, though the genomic properties of tree shrews are highly similar to those of the primates. | 2019 | 30885224 |
