The family Adenoviridae includes non-enveloped viruses with linear dsDNA genomes of 25–48 kb and medium-sized icosahedral capsids. Adenoviruses have been discovered in vertebrates from fish to humans. is divided into six genera, each which more common certain animal groups. outcome infection may vary subclinical lethal disease. This a summary the ICTV Report on , available at ictv.global/report/adenoviridae .

Members of the family Herpesviridae have enveloped, spherical virions with characteristic complex structures consisting symmetrical and non-symmetrical components. The linear, double-stranded DNA genomes 125-241 kbp contain 70-170 genes, which 43 been inherited from an ancestral herpesvirus. In general, herpesviruses coevolved are highly adapted to their hosts, comprise many mammalian, avian reptilian species. Following primary infection, they able establish lifelong latent during there is...

A consensus nested-PCR method was designed for investigation of the DNA polymerase gene adenoviruses. Gene fragments were amplified and sequenced from six novel adenoviruses seven lizard species, including four species which had not previously been reported. Host included Gila monster, leopard gecko, fat-tail blue-tongued skink, Tokay bearded dragon, mountain chameleon. This is first sequence information Phylogenetic analysis indicated that these viruses belong to genus Atadenovirus,...

Human adenovirus 52 (HAdV-52) is one of only three known HAdVs equipped with both a long and short fiber protein. While the binds to coxsackie receptor, function in virus life cycle poorly understood. Here, we show, by glycan microarray analysis cellular studies, that knob (SFK) HAdV-52 recognizes chains α-2,8-linked polysialic acid (polySia), large posttranslational modification selected carrier proteins, can use polySia as receptor on target cells. X-ray crystallography, NMR, molecular...

From adenovirus-like viruses originating from a fish and snake species, conserved part of the adenoviral DNA polymerase gene was PCR amplified, cloned sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis showed that adenovirus is closely related to members proposed genus Atadenovirus, whereas isolate seems represent separate cluster, likely new genus.

Although adenoviruses (AdVs) have been found in a wide variety of reptiles, including numerous squamate species, turtles, and crocodiles, the number reptilian adenovirus isolates is still scarce. The only fully sequenced adenovirus, snake 1 (SnAdV-1), belongs to Atadenovirus genus. Recently, two new atadenoviruses were isolated from captive Gila monster (Heloderma suspectum) Mexican beaded lizards horridum). Here we report full genomic proteomic characterization latter, designated lizard 2...

The pathology, epizootiology and aetiology of a specific disease young geese, which has been seen in Hungary for more than three decades, were investigated. was characterised by splenitis hepatitis with miliary necrotic foci during the acute phase, epicarditis, arthritis tenosynovitis subacute/chronic phase. Clinical signs usually appeared at 2 to 3 weeks age persisted 6 weeks. From different organs affected birds, reovirus isolated embryonated eggs tissue cultures ofMuscovy duck or goose...

Approximately 60% of the genome an adenovirus isolated from a corn snake (Elaphe guttata) was cloned and sequenced. The results homology searches showed that genes (SnAdV-1) were closest to their counterparts in members recently proposed new genus ATADENOVIRUS: In phylogenetic analyses complete hexon protease genes, SnAdV-1 indeed clustered together with atadenoviruses. characteristic features organization included presence gene homologous for protein p32K, lack structural proteins V IX...
