The Structure of Avian Polyomavirus Reveals Variably Sized Capsids, Non-Conserved Inter-Capsomere Interactions, and a Possible Location of the Minor Capsid Protein VP4 [PDF]

Virology, 2011
Avian polyomavirus (APV) causes a fatal, multi-organ disease among several bird species. Using cryogenic electron microscopy and other biochemical techniques, we investigated the structure of APV and compared it to that of mammalian polyomaviruses ...

A Longitudinal Study on Avian Polyomavirus-specific Antibodies in Captive Spix's Macaws (Cyanopsitta spixii) [PDF]

Journal of Avian Medicine and Surgery, 2010
Avian polyomavirus (APV) causes a range of disease syndromes in psittacine birds, from acute fatal disease to subclinical infections, depending on age, species, and other unidentified risk factors. To determine the prevalence of APV-specific antibodies in a captive population of Spix’s macaws (Cyanopsitta spixii) in Quatar, 54 birds were tested by ...

Polymerase chain reaction assay for avian polyomavirus [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1991
A polymerase chain reaction assay was developed for detection of budgerigar fledgling disease virus (BFDV). The assay used a single set of primers complementary to sequences located in the putative coding region for the BFDV VP1 gene. The observed amplification product had the expected size of 550 bp and was confirmed to derive from BFDV DNA by its ...

Complete Genome Sequence of an Avian Polyomavirus Strain First Isolated from a Pigeon in China. [PDF]

Microbiol Resour Announc, 2019
Avian polyomavirus can infect multiple bird species and cause inflammatory disease with high mortality in young psittacine birds. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed an avian polyomavirus isolated from a pigeon in China, strain APV-P, which is closely related to a polyomavirus in psittacine birds.

Structural Basis and Evolution of Glycan Receptor Specificities within the Polyomavirus Family

mBio, 2020
Asymptomatic infections with polyomaviruses in humans are common, but these small viruses can cause severe diseases in immunocompromised hosts. New Jersey polyomavirus (NJPyV) was identified via a muscle biopsy in an organ transplant recipient with ...

The Pacific lineage (2E) of JC polyomavirus is prevalent in Sumba Island, Eastern Indonesia [PDF]

, 2008
Recent studies have identified a Pacific lineage (2E) of JC polyomavirus (also designated as JC virus or JCV) that occurs in both Island Southeast Asia and Oceania, but not in mainland Asia.
