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 ...

Biology of Polyomavirus miRNA [PDF]
Polyomaviruses are a family of non-enveloped DNA viruses with wide host ranges. Human polyomaviruses typically cause asymptomatic infection and establish persistence but can be reactivated under certain conditions and cause severe diseases.

Microtubules in Polyomavirus Infection [PDF]
Microtubules, part of the cytoskeleton, are indispensable for intracellular movement, cell division, and maintaining cell shape and polarity. In addition, microtubules play an important role in viral infection.

Prevalence and Molecular Profiling of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus in Patients With Monkeypox Virus Infection. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Mpox, caused by Monkeypox virus (MPXV), is associated with mucosal involvement and immune modulation that may influence viral coinfections. Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV), a ubiquitous virus capable of lifelong persistence, was investigated in 66 Mpox patients enrolled at Lazzaro Spallanzani National Institute for Infectious Diseases (Rome ...

Genome Sequences of a Rat Polyomavirus Related to Murine Polyomavirus, Rattus norvegicus Polyomavirus 1 [PDF]
ABSTRACT We amplified and sequenced six complete genomes of a polyomavirus from feral Norway rats ( Rattus norvegicus ) and from a long-term breeding colony derived from Norway rats. This virus, which is closely related to hamster polyomavirus and murine polyomavirus, may contribute to understanding the ...

Identification of MW Polyomavirus, a Novel Polyomavirus in Human Stool [PDF]
ABSTRACT We have discovered a novel polyomavirus present in multiple human stool samples. The virus was initially identified by shotgun pyrosequencing of DNA purified from virus-like particles isolated from a stool sample collected from a healthy child from Malawi.
