  1. Human Parvoviruses Kevin E Brown Immunisation and Diagnosis Unit Virus Reference Department Centre for Infections

  2. Parvoviruses Small 22-24 nm non-enveloped 4 - 5.5 kb ss DNA genome with ITRs at 5’ and 3’ ends Encode no polymerase Dependant on cellular/other viral proteins for DNA replication 2 large ORF NS (or Rep) proteins VP (or Cap) proteins Classification Two subfamilies – host range Densovirinae – insects Parvovirinae – vertebrates Autonomous/dependant replication + or – strand packaging Identical or different 5’ and 3’ ITRs 1, 2 or 3 promoters Sequence pyhlogeny

  3. Parvovirus B19 • First identified in 1974 (CPHL, London) • ~ 22 nm icosahedral virion • Linear single stranded DNA • ~ 5600 nucleotides • Long (383nt) terminal hairpin seq • Complex transcription map • Single promoter (p6) • 1 non-spliced non-structural protein • 2 capsid proteins (VP1 & VP2) -alt splicing • Small proteins of unknown function • VP2 self assembles to form VLP • Erythrotropic • Does not grow in standard tissue culture • Replicates in erythroid progenitors • Rare cell lines (UT7/Epo; KU812Ep6)

  4. A6 V9 Phylogenetic tree of VP1u region Servant et al. J. Virol 2002

  5. Prevalence of variant B19 in different groups * Only detected in those born before 1973

  6. 1st identified in a IVDU • Fever, arthralgia, meningism • Acute sample only • Lost to follow up • Closest sequence • Putative Erythroviruses • Chipmunk

  7. Parv4 DNA • Typical parvovirus features • Incomplete hairpin sequence • Gap between NS and capsid • VP1 ~ 100 kDa • No 11 kDa or 7.5kDa ORFs

  8. Prevalence of Parv4 DNAby PCR (NIH data)

  9. Prevalence of PARV4 virus using nested PCR Blood donors from Los Angeles area summer 2005 300 pools of 16 29 positives (9.6% or 0.6% if divided by 16). 200 single donations 4 positives (2%) Subjects with symptoms of acute viral infection or highly exposed (MSM, IDU) 16/195 subjects positive (85) 1 PARV5, PARV4 Increasing prevalence in symptomatic/exposed subjects may reflect pathogenic viral infection OR higher exposure to blood borne viruses (e.g. like GBV-C)

  11. Parv4 DNA VP2 expression • Bacteria • 60 kDa • Baculovirus • VLP • No HA • ELISA developed • Indirect format

  12. Seroprevalence of Parv4

  13. Pooled NPA secretions • 48 samples • 38/48 pediatric patients • 378 NPA samples • Culture negative • 7/266 pediatric patients • 0/112 adult patients • 540 samples hospitalized peds • 3.1% pos • Increased in winter months • Closest sequence • Bovine parvovirus • CPV type 1 (MVC)

  14. Human parvoviruses • Parvovirus B19 (B19V) – type member of Erythroviruses • 3 different genotypes now recognized • No evidence for different serotypes • Highly erythrotropic • Detection of DNA in blood and tissues for years following acute infection • No evidence of reactivation/integration • Parv4/5 is a new member of the Parvovidae • Sequences are uncommon in blood and blood products • No culture method available • VLP can be expressed • Do not resemble B19V • Do not HA • Parv4 Ab common in children/adults • Human bocavirus in respiratory secretions of children < 5 • Prevalence in other tissues/age groups • VLP can be expressed • Adeno-associated viruses – AAV2, 3, 5 are human viruses
