- Wuhan large pig roundworm virus identified in human feces in Brazil(2018) LUCHS, Adriana; LEAL, Elcio; KOMNINAKIS, Shirley Vasconcelos; MILAGRES, Flavio Augusto de Padua; BRUSTULIN, Rafael; TELES, Maria da Aparecida Rodrigues; GILL, Danielle Elise; DENG, Xutao; DELWART, Eric; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; COSTA, Antonio Charlys daWe report here the complete genome sequence of a bipartite virus, herein denoted WLPRV/human/BRA/TO-34/201, from a sample collected in 2015 from a two-year-old child in Brazil presenting acute gastroenteritis. The virus has 98-99% identity (segments 2 and 1, respectively) with the Wuhan large pig roundworm virus (unclassified RNA virus) that was recently discovered in the stomachs of pigs from China. This is the first report of a Wuhan large pig roundworm virus detected in human specimens, and the second genome described worldwide. However, the generation of more sequence data and further functional studies are required to fully understand the ecology, epidemiology, and evolution of this new unclassified virus.
- Complete Genome Sequences of Six Human Bocavirus Strains from Patients with Acute Gastroenteritis in the North Region of Brazil(2018) WATANABE, Aripuana Sakurada Aranha; LUCHS, Adriana; LEAL, Elcio; MILAGRES, Flavio Augusto de Padua; KOMNINAKIS, Shirley Vasconcelos; GILL, Danielle Elise; LOBATO, Marcia Cristina Alves Brito Sayao; BRUSTULIN, Rafael; CHAGAS, Rogerio Togisaki das; ABRAO, Maria de Fatima Neves dos Santos; SOARES, Cassia Vitoria de Deus Alves; DENG, Xutao; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; DELWART, Eric; COSTA, Antonio Charlys daHuman bocavirus (HBoV) is commonly associated with acute respiratory tract illness and gastroenteritis. We report six complete genomic sequences of HBoV strains from patients with gastroenteritis in Belem do Para and Tocantins in the North Region of Brazil. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the six HBoV strains belong to genotypes 1, 2, and 3.
- Recombination Located over 2A-2B Junction Ribosome Frameshifting Region of Saffold Cardiovirus(2018) COSTA, Antonio Charlys da; LUCHS, Adriana; MILAGRES, Flavio Augusto de Padua; KOMNINAKIS, Shirley Vasconcelos; GILL, Danielle Elise; LOBATO, Marcia Cristina Alves Brito Sayao; BRUSTULIN, Rafael; CHAGAS, Rogerio Togisaki das; ABRAO, Maria de Fatima Neves dos Santos; SOARES, Cassia Vitoria de Deus Alves; DENG, Xutao; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; DELWART, Eric; LEAL, ElcioHere we report the nearly full-length genome of a recombinant Saffold virus strain (SAFV-BR-193) isolated from a child with acute gastroenteritis. Evolutionary analysis performed using all available near-full length Saffold picornavirus genomes showed that the breakpoint found in the Brazilian strain (SAFV-BR-193) is indeed a recombination hotspot. Notably, this hotspot is located just one nucleotide after the ribosomal frameshift GGUUUUU motif in the SAFV genome. Empirical studies will be necessary to determine if this motif also affects the binding affinity of RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase (RdRp) and therefore increases the changes of RdRp swap between molecules during the synthesis of viral genomes.
- Near full length genome of a recombinant (E/D) cosavirus strain from a rural area in the central region of Brazil(2018) COSTA, Antonio Charlys da; LUCHS, Adriana; MILAGRES, Flavio Augusto de Padua; KOMNINAKIS, Shirley Vasconcelos; GILL, Danielle Elise; LOBATO, Marcia Cristina Alves Brito Sayao; BRUSTULIN, Rafael; CHAGAS, Rogerio Togisaki das; ABRAO, Maria de Fatima Neves dos Santos; SOARES, Cassia Vitoria de Deus Alves; DENG, Xutao; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; DELWART, Eric; LEAL, ElcioIn the present article we report the nearly full length genome of a Cosavirus strain (BRTO-83) isolated from a child with acute gastroenteritis, and who is an inhabitant of a rural area in the central region of Brazil. The sample was previously screened and negative for both: common enteric viruses (i.e. rotavirus and norovirus), bacteria, endoparasites and helminthes. Evolutionary analysis and phylogenetic inferences indicated that the Brazilian BRTO-83 Cosavirus strain was a recombinant virus highly related to the E/D recombinant NG385 strain (Genbank JN867757), which was isolated in Nigeria from an acute flaccid paralysis patient. This is the first report of a recombinant E/D Cosavirus strain detected in Brazil, and the second genome described worldwide. Further surveillance and molecular studies are required to fully understand the epidemiology, distribution and evolution of the Cosavirus.
