Adenoviridae Molecular Virology
HISTORY • first isolated in 1953 (Rowe, et al. (1953), Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med.84:570–573) from tonsils and adenoids of children • similar viral agents were isolated from febrile military personnel with respiratory illnesses • adenoid degeneration (AD), adenoid-pharyngeal conjunctival (APC), and acute respiratory disease (ARD) agents • 1956 ADENOVIRUS passage normal cell culture cytopathic effect virions
TAXONOMY GROUP Group I dsDNA FAMILY Adenoviridae (Greek, adenos, “gland”) GENUS Mastadenovirus (Greek, mastos, “breast”) Aviadenovirus (Latin, avis, “bird”) Atadenovirus (English, adenine and thymine) Siadenovirus (English, sialidase) Ichtadenovirus(Greek, ichthys, “fish”)
TYPE SPECIES Sturgeon Adv A Frog Adv Fowl Adv A Ovine Adv D Human Adv C
CLASSIFICATION SCHEMES FOR HUMAN ADENOVIRUS (MASTADENOVIRUS H) Knipe and Howley. Field’s Virology. 5th ed.
GENOME • linear dsDNA; 30-36 Kb • inverted terminal repeat (ITR) sequences at 3’-end; 30-200 bp • linear DNA forms a loop due to terminal protein (covalently linked to each 5’ end) and terminal base pairing • all genes are transcribed by host RNA pol II except VA gene which is transcribed by RNA pol III • mRNAs are polycistronic and are differentiated by alternative splicing and use of different poly(A) sites
STRUCTURE • non-enveloped, icosahedral capsid; 90-120 nm • 20 equilateral triangular faces, 12 vertices • each face has 12 identical hexons and each vertex has 1 penton; • each penton is attached to a fiber protein • 12 x 20 = 240 hexons; also 12 pentons • total of 252 capsomers
