Genotyping schemes for polyomavirus BK, using gene-specific phylogenetic trees and single nucleotide polymorphism analysis.
BK virus (BKV) genotyping has been historically based on nucleotides 1744 to 1812 in the VP1 gene. We reevaluated this practice by making BKV whole-genome and gene-specific phylogenetic trees as well as performing single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis of 162 sequences available in the public domain. It was found that currently known BKV subtypes and subgroups can no longer be reliably d...
متن کاملBK Polyomavirus in Respiratory Specimens of Patients with Respiratory Disease
Background and Aims: The role of BK and JC polyomaviruses (BKV and JCV) in the causation of respiratory disease and the natural route of transmission has not well been established. The aim of study was to determine the prevalence of BK and JC viruses in 280 respiratory samples and evaluate their contribution to respiratory disease. Materials and Methods: PCR was used to screen specimens for BK...
متن کاملPolyomavirus BK-specific immunity after kidney transplantation.
Failure to mount or maintain a protective immune response may influence the development of polyomavirus BK (BKV)-associated nephropathy (PVAN). However, limited data are so far available on BKV-specific immunity after kidney transplantation. BKV-specific cellular immune response was retrospectively analyzed in kidney recipients with or without BKV infection/reactivation by measuring the frequen...

متن کاملSequences and Phylogenetic Analysis of Envelope (E) Gene of Iranian Infectious Bronchitis Virus Isolates in Iran
Background and Aims: Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is the etiological agent of infectious bronchitis (IB), which is an acute and highly contagious disease of the respiratory and sometimes the urogenital tracts of chickens. In Iran, the disease has been identified in chicken flocks with serological and virus isolation methods. Gene 3c (E) encode envelop (small membrane) protein. For envelope...
