Isolation and characterization of a novel gammaherpesvirus from a microbat cell line


ABSTRACT: While employing deep sequencing and de novo assembly to characterize the mRNA transcript profile of a cell line derived from the microbat Myotis velifer incautus, we serendipitously identified mRNAs encoding proteins with a high level of identity to herpesviruses. Next generation sequencing and de novo assembly of the viral genome from supernatants from Vero cells yielded a single contig of approximately 130 kilobases with at least 80 ORFs, predicted microRNAs and a gammaherpesvirus genomic organization. Phylogenetic analysis of the envelope glycoprotein (gB) and DNA polymerase (POLD1) revealed similarity to multiple gammaherpesvirus, including those from as yet uncultured viruses of the Rhadinovirus genus that were obtained by deep sequencing of bat tissues. Cumulatively, this study provides the first isolation and characterization of a replication competent bat gammaherpesvirus.
