Detection of Novel Poxvirus from Gray Seal (Halichoerus grypus), Germany
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023 We detected a novel poxvirus from a gray seal (Halichoerus grypus) from the North Sea, Germany. The juvenile animal showed pox-like lesions and deteriorating overall health condition and was finally euthanized. Histology, electron microscopy, sequencing,

The Genome of Yoka Poxvirus [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2011 Yoka poxvirus was isolated almost four decades ago from a mosquito pool in the Central African Republic. Its classification as a poxvirus is based solely upon the morphology of virions visualized by electron microscopy. Here we describe sequencing of the

Poxvirus membrane biogenesis [PDF]
Virology, 2015 Poxviruses differ from most DNA viruses by replicating entirely within the cytoplasm. The first discernible viral structures are crescents and spherical immature virions containing a single lipoprotein membrane bilayer with an external honeycomb lattice.

Avian poxvirus infection in Polish great tits (Parus major)
Journal of Veterinary Research, 2018 Introduction: Avian poxvirus infections are widespread in the domestic poultry population but are also reported in wild birds. In poultry, these infections cause significant economic losses, while wild birds may be a reservoir for poxvirus which affects ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Poxvirus Evolution [PDF]
mBio, 2023 Poxviruses are often thought to evolve relatively slowly because they are double-stranded DNA pathogens with proofreading polymerases. However, poxviruses have highly adaptable genomes and can undergo relatively rapid genotypic and phenotypic change, as ...

The poxvirus F17 protein counteracts mitochondrially orchestrated antiviral responses
Nature Communications, 2023 Poxviruses are unusual DNA viruses that replicate in the cytoplasm. To do so, they encode approximately 100 immunomodulatory proteins that counteract cytosolic nucleic acid sensors such as cGAMP synthase (cGAS) along with several other antiviral response

Novel Poxvirus in Big Brown Bats, Northwestern United States
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 A wildlife hospital and rehabilitation center in northwestern United States received several big brown bats with necrosuppurative osteomyelitis in multiple joints. Wing and joint tissues were positive by PCR for poxvirus. Thin-section electron microscopy

Genomic Analysis of Novel Poxvirus Brazilian Porcupinepox Virus, Brazil, 2019
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021 We obtained the complete sequence of a novel poxvirus, tentatively named Brazilian porcupinepox virus, from a wild porcupine (Coendou prehensilis) in Brazil that had skin and internal lesions characteristic of poxvirus infection.
