Abstract

We report a novel human adenovirus D (HAdV-65) isolated from feces of 4 children in Bangladesh who had acute gastroenteritis. Corresponding genes of HAdV-65 were related to a hexon gene of HAdV-10, penton base genes of HAdV-37 and HAdV-58, and a fiber gene of HAdV-9. This novel virus may be a serious threat to public health.

Highlights

  • Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are common pathogens that cause several diseases, such as pneumonia, acute gastroenteritis, and epidemic keratoconjunctivitis [1]

  • HAdV-65 was closely related to HAdV-37 and HAdV-58 in the hypervariable loop 1 and the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) loop of the penton base gene, respectively

  • SimPlot analysis showed no potential recombination in the hexon and fiber genes, and recombination between the hypervariable loop 1 and the RGD loop was predicted in the penton base gene

Summary

Introduction

Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are common pathogens that cause several diseases, such as pneumonia, acute gastroenteritis, and epidemic keratoconjunctivitis [1]. The complete genome of HAdV-65 was sequenced by using the primer walking method. Complete genome analysis showed that HAdV-65 was >5.0% distant from any other HAdV-D reference strains
