Systematic genome analysis enables long-overdue taxonomic reorganization of genus Orthoflavivirus; potential assignment of over 50 new species

Members of the Orthoflavivirus genus in the family Flaviviridae are primarily vector-transmitted RNA viruses infecting humans, other mammals and birds, including major pathogens such as tick borne encephalitis, West Nile, Zika and dengue viruses. Vector-borne flaviviruses are assigned to the Euflavivirus subgenus of orthoflaviviruses, with more divergent largely unclassified insect-specific flaviviruses, including cell fusing agent virus assigned to the second subgenus, Fusivirus. The currently classified 57 orthoflavivirus species have traditionally been assigned descriptively on the basis of their genome and antigenic relatedness, ecology and host and vector tropisms, although many more orthoflavi-like viruses remain unassigned. To investigate whether species might be demarcated using a fixed genetic divergence threshold, we examined distributions of pairwise distances in NS5 and E genes (which encode the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase and envelope protein, respectively) of classified orthoflaviviruses. Demarcation thresholds of 0.1 in the two regions would be most parsimonious with current euflavivirus classification. Exceptions include species in the tick-borne encephalitis virus complex with divergences below the threshold, and dengue virus types currently assigned to a single species that are substantially above. Application of the proposed thresholds would provide the means to establish 25 new euflavivirus and 33 new fusivirus species and reconcile several anomalies and inconsistencies in the current species taxonomy. The use of a species demarcation threshold brings consistency with the classification of viruses in other families. A robust and evolutionarily consistent framework furthermore enables taxonomic assignments of the numerous currently unassigned orthoflaviviruses that lack the phenotypic descriptions required for the current species definition.

Infection of neotropical non-human primates with bat deltaviruses

Background & Aims: The origin of hepatitis D virus (HDV) and related deltaviruses remains elusive. Contrarily, hepatitis B virus, HDV's helper virus, and related hepadnaviruses display long-term association with primates. Current data suggest cross-order host shifts as a common mechanism in deltavirus ecology, but corroborative evidence is lacking. Here, we aimed to elucidate the genealogy of primate deltaviruses. Methods: We screened 961 non-human primate (NHP) liver specimens obtained in Brazil between 2017-2023 for deltaviruses and hepadnaviruses. Complete deltaviral genomes were obtained via overlapping nested RT-PCR, cloned, expressed in vitro and analyzed via immunoblot and immunofluorescence analysis. Anti-deltaviral antibodies in NHP and vampire bats were detected via immunofluorescence analysis. Results: We detected deltaviruses in two NHP. Complete deltaviral genomes exhibited common features including high self-complementarity, genomic and antigenomic ribozymes, and a delta antigen open reading frame. NHP deltaviruses were phylogenetically related to viruses found in common vampire bats. The NHP deltaviruses replicated in vitro without the expression of a large delta antigen. We did not detect anti-deltaviral antibodies in NHP sera (0/249), in contrast to sera from common vampire bats (7/112; 6.2%, 95% CI: 1.8-10.7), indicating viral circulation in bats. Ancestral state reconstruction suggested a bat origin of NHP deltaviruses. Targeted screening excluded a coinfecting hepadnavirus in the deltavirus-positive animals but led to the discovery of a hepadnavirus, corroborating a non-recent introduction of hepadnaviruses into the primate stem-lineage. Conclusions: Our data are consistent with deltaviral cross-order host shifts and suggestive of the susceptibility of primates to reservoir-bound deltaviruses, lending credibility to a zoonotic origin of HDV.

Pathogenesis and host response to a novel Tacaribe virus isolate in experimentally-infected Jamaican fruit bats

Tacaribe virus (TCRV) was the first arenavirus discovered in the New World and was isolated from Artibeus bats in Trinidad and Tobago in the 1950s. One isolate, TRVL-11573, remains but it was passaged by intracranial inoculation of newborn mice 22 times that likely changed its biology. This isolate has been extensively used for arenavirus research, including our previous work that showed it can cause fatal neurological disease in Jamaican fruit bats (Artibeus jamaicensis). Another divergent TCRV, DOM2014, was recently identified in transcriptome data from a Jamaican fruit bat captured in the Dominican Republic that contained TCRV genome. A kidney fragment homogenate from this bat was inoculated into Jamaican fruit bats and all became infected with signs of mild liver disease. Experimental challenge of Jamaican fruit bats with DOM2014 led to nonfatal infection that persisted through the end of the study on day 21 and with contact transmission to naive bats. Histopathology, immunohistochemistry and serum chemistry confirmed infection and mild liver disease, but none of the bats produced neutralizing antibodies. B cell receptor transcripts suggested limited somatic hypermutation that could explain the lack of detectable neutralizing antibodies. Transcriptome profiling of livers and spleens showed signatures of a typical innate antiviral response; however, evidence of adaptive immune suppression was also present. Similarly, liver transcriptome analysis showed signatures of an expected innate antiviral response and metabolic dysfunction. The isolation of TCRV DOM2014 provides a relevant model for the study of a bat reservoir host, and which may challenge the extensive work previously conducted with TRVL-11573. IMPORTANCESeveral New World arenaviruses cause disease in humans and many are BSL-4 agents. TCRV strain TRVL-11573 has been used since the 1950s to study arenavirus biology; however, because it was intracranially passaged in newborn mice and Vero cells, it likely accumulated mutations that changed its biology. This assertion has been reinforced in recent years with discovery of divergent TCRV sequences in wild Artibeus bats that are substantially different than TRVL-11573, thus the prototype strain is unlikely to represent wildtype TCRV. The isolation of a new TCRV strain that has retained its genome fidelity allows a better understanding of TCRVs biology and pathogenic potential. The availability of pathogen-free Jamaican fruit bats and cell lines that are permissive for TCRV DOM2014 will also help retain the biological features of the virus. Collectively, this is among the most tractable bat reservoir host models developed and provides a system for dissection of how bats host viruses. Moreover, it may be a suitable model for the study of therapeutics and vaccines for New World arenaviruses.

Spillover of H5 influenza viruses to vampire bats at the marine-terrestrial interface

The highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza A virus (IAV) clade 2.3.4.4b has spread globally and spilled over into multiple mammalian species, raising concerns about its pandemic potential. In late 2022, clade 2.3.4.4b viruses devastated seabird and marine mammal populations along the Pacific coast of South America. Here, we report the first evidence of H5 IAV infections in wild bats globally, focusing on common vampire bats (Desmodus rotundus) in coastal areas of Peru. Longitudinal serological screening, stable isotope analysis and metabarcoding revealed repeated exposures to H5 IAVs in vampire bats which feed on coastal wildlife species heavily impacted by the 2.3.4.4b epizootic, but no evidence of infection in populations without access to marine prey. We further report bat gene flow between IAV-exposed and IAV-naive populations, and IAV infections in a vampire bat colony that fed on both marine and terrestrial livestock prey, providing insights into how future IAV epizootics might spread spatially within bats and between marine and terrestrial ecosystems if a bat reservoir were established. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the H5 haemagglutinin protein binds to the upper respiratory tract of vampire bats, suggesting bat tissue susceptibility to H5 IAVs. Finally, vampire bat-derived kidney, liver, and lung cells supported entry, replication, and egress of avian and mammalian 2.3.4.4b viruses, confirming cellular infectivity. These results illustrate how combining ecological inference and experimental virology can pinpoint the species origins and biological significance of viral spillover at species interfaces. Recurrent exposures from marine wildlife, tissue and cellular susceptibility to H5N1 IAVs, and connections to other IAV-susceptible terrestrial mammals establish the prerequisite conditions for vampire bats to spread IAVs between marine and terrestrial environments or to form a novel reservoir of highly pathogenic IAVs.

A global serosurvey of RNA virus-reactive antibodies in bats and rodents reveals the enzootic presence of flavi- and paramyxoviruses in African Pteropodidae

Bats and rodents have been identified as reservoir hosts of diverse RNA viruses that pose potential risks to humans. However, overall virus prevalence in wildlife and underlying factors determining the zoonotic potential of reservoir-borne viruses remain poorly characterized. Virus detection often relies on the identification of viral nucleotide sequences and may therefore be limited by variable virus concentration, tissue tropism, sample quality, and duration of infection. In this study, we applied a multiplex immunofluorescence assay to examine bat and rodent seroprevalence against 14 different human pathogenic RNA viruses spanning seven virus families (Coronaviridae, Flaviviridae, Hantaviridae, Paramyxoviridae, Phenuiviridae, Pneumoviridae, Togaviridae). We retrospectively analyzed 1,135 bat (16 species) and 454 rodent (15 species) blood or transudate specimens collected at 63 sites in seven countries. Tropical bats exhibited notably high rates of seropositivity against certain virus families (Flaviviridae: 42.8%; Paramyxoviridae: 60.4%; Togaviridae: 7.5%). Multivariable logistic regression models were created to evaluate the association of tropical bat characteristics with seropositivity. Preliminary findings indicate that large colony size, found among species such as Eidolon helvum and Rousettus aegyptiacus, is a risk factor for orthoflavi- and orthorubulavirus infection, consistent with the communal spread of bat-adapted viruses. Author SummaryMany animal populations carry viruses that have the potential to spill over to humans and cause severe disease. Despite surveillance efforts, it is logistically challenging to detect virus infections in wildlife, as viruses may have a short duration of infection or unknown routes of transmission. In this study, we examined blood and transudate samples from rodents and bats around the world for antibodies against 14 different viruses known to cause disease in humans. We analyzed the samples via a mosaic chip-based immunofluorescence test, which has the advantage of detecting antibodies against whole-virus antigen. This method allows for broad surveillance, as we would also expect to uncover evidence of past infection with bat- and rodent-adapted viruses that are related, but not identical, to known human pathogens. We detected antibodies against all seven virus families we examined, with especially high detection rates of antibodies in tropical bats. We used the results to construct multivariable logistic regression models of tropical bat seroprevalence to examine potential associations between tropical bat characteristics and previous infection by certain virus families. Bats with large colony sizes, such as Eidolon helvum and Rousettus aegyptiacus, were apparently at increased risk of infection with orthoflavi- and orthorubulaviruses compared to other tropical bat species.

Origins and evolutionary trajectories of morbilliviruses in Neotropical bats

Bats are important reservoirs of paramyxoviruses, yet their role in the evolutionary origins of morbilliviruses like measles and rinderpest viruses remains unclear. Investigating wild bats (38/1,629 RT-PCR positive) and non-human primates (NHP, 13/1,370 RT-PCR-positive) from Latin America coupled with data mining, we identified six divergent morbilliviruses. High morbillivirus concentrations in bat organs and morbillivirus RNA staining in NHP livers suggested systemic infection. Of 117 vampire bats, 35.9% had neutralizing antibodies against a primary vampire bat morbillivirus isolate, suggesting frequent survived infections. Usage of bat, but not human, CD150 for cell entry and partial cross-neutralization of bat-associated morbillivirus by heterologous sera suggested conserved entry and antigenicity. Macro-evolutionary reconstructions revealed a predominant role of Neotropical bats during morbilliviral diversification, including bat-associated host shifts into Mexican pigs and Brazilian NHPs. These data argue for increased surveillance, experimental risk assessments, vaccine development, and intervention strategies to cease future outbreaks of previously reservoir-bound morbilliviruses.

Integrated analysis of protein sequence and structureredefines viral diversity and the taxonomy of the Flaviviridae

The Flaviviridae are a family of non-segmented positive-sense enveloped RNA viruses containing significant pathogens including hepatitis C virus and yellow fever virus. Recent large-scale metagenomic surveys have identified many diverse RNA viruses related to classical orthoflaviviruses and pestiviruses but quite different genome lengths and configurations, and with a hugely expanded host range that spans multiple animal phyla, including molluscs, cnidarians and stramenopiles,, and plants. Grouping of RNA-directed RNA polymerase (RdRP) hallmark gene sequences of flavivirus and flavi-like viruses into four divergent clades and multiple lineages within them was congruent with helicase gene phylogeny, PPHMM profile comparisons, and comparison of RdRP protein structure predicted by AlphFold2. These results support their classification into the established order, Amarillovirales, in three families (Flaviviridae, Pestiviridae, and Hepaciviridae), and 14 genera. This taxonomic framework informed by RdRP hallmark gene evolutionary relationships provides a stable reference from which major genome re-organisational events can be understood.

Reduced functional fungal communities in two species of sloths (Bradypus variegatus and Choloepus hoffmanni) suggest a link to slow digestion

Sloths, with their ruminant-like digestive systems, possess the slowest digestion among mammals due to their low metabolic rate, minimal food intake, and extremely low-energy diet. However, no comprehensive studies have characterized the sloths gut microbiota, including fungi, and their role in digestion. This study hypothesized that effective plant fiber-degrading fungi (e.g., Neocallimastigomycota) would be scarce in the sloths gut. The aim was to describe the gut microbiota of three-toed (Bradypus variegatus) and two-toed (Choloepus hoffmanni) sloths to understand their link to slow digestion. Microbial composition and functionality were analyzed using shotgun metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, fungal metabarcoding (ITS 1 and 2 nrDNA), and cellulose degradation analysis. Microbial communities were dominated by bacteria (92-97%), followed by viruses (1-7%). Fungi accounted for only 0.06-0.5% of metagenomic reads and 0.1% of transcripts. Functional analysis revealed minimal CAZy abundance (1.7-1.9% in metagenomes, 0.2% in metatranscriptomes), with no fungal CAZys or glycoside hydrolases detected. Neocallimastigomycota had negligible abundance in metagenomic data and was absent in metatranscriptomic or ITS metabarcoding data. Bradypus variegatus showed overall lower CAZy abundance and fungal presence compared to Choloepus hoffmanni. Lastly, cellulose degradation analyses revealed that only [~]5-35% of the intake was digested. This study highlights the unique microbial ecosystem in sloths guts, showing minimal presence of plant fiber-degrading anaerobic fungi and limited microbial CAZys, aligning with their slow digestion and low metabolic rate, thus enhancing our understanding of their digestive efficiency and metabolic adaptations.

SARS-CoV-2 has not emerged in roe, red or fallow deer in Germany or Austria during the COVID 19 pandemic

Spillover of SARS-CoV-2 to North American white tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) has been documented. We evaluated pre and pandemic exposure of German and Austrian deer species using a SARS-CoV-2 pseudoneutralization assay. In stark contrast to North American white tailed deer, we found no evidence of SARS-CoV-2 exposure. Article Summary LineUsing a sensitive serological assay, 433 pre and pandemic deer samples from Germany and Austria tested negative for SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies highlighting a major difference between central European and North American deer exposure and in their epidemiologic roles.

Genomic determinants of Furin cleavage in diverse European SARS-related bat coronaviruses

The furin cleavage site in SARS-CoV-2 is unique within the Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus (SrC) species. We re-assessed diverse SrC from European horseshoe bats and reveal molecular determinants such as purine richness, RNA secondary structures and viral quasispecies potentially enabling furin cleavage. Furin cleavage thus likely emerged from the SrC bat reservoir via molecular mechanisms conserved across reservoir-bound RNA viruses, supporting a natural origin of SARS-CoV-2.

High efficacy of therapeutic equine hyperimmune antibodies against SARS CoV-2 variants of concern

SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VoC) show reduced neutralization by vaccine-induced and therapeutic monoclonal antibodies. We tested therapeutic equine polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) against four VoC (alpha, beta, epsilon and gamma). We show that equine pAbs efficiently neutralize VoC, suggesting they are an effective, broad coverage, low-cost and a scalable COVID-19 treatment.

SARS-CoV-2 Genomic Surveillance in Costa Rica: Evidence of a Divergent Population and an Increased Detection of a Spike T1117I Mutation

Genome sequencing is a key strategy in the surveillance of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. Latin America is the hardest hit region of the world, accumulating almost 20% of COVID-19 cases worldwide. Costa Rica was first exemplary for the region in its pandemic control, declaring a swift state of emergency on March 16th that led to a low quantity of cases, until measures were lifted in early May. From the first detected case in March 6th to December 31st almost 170 000 cases have been reported in Costa Rica, 99.5% of them from May onwards. We analyzed the genomic variability during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Costa Rica using 185 sequences, 52 from the first months of the pandemic, and 133 from the current wave. Three GISAID clades (G, GH, and GR) and three PANGOLIN lineages (B.1, B.1.1, and B.1.291) are predominant, with phylogenetic relationships that are in line with the results of other Latin American countries, suggesting introduction and multiple re-introductions from other regions of the world. The whole-genome variant calling analysis identified a total of 283 distinct nucleotide variants. These correspond mostly to non-synonymous mutations (51.6%, 146) but 45.6% (129) corresponded to synonymous mutations. The 283 variants showed an expected power-law distribution: 190 single nucleotide mutations were identified in single sequences, only 16 single nucleotide mutations were found in >5% sequences, and only two mutations in >50% genomes. These mutations were distributed through the whole genome. However, 63.6% were present in ORF1ab, 11.7% in Spike gene and 10.6% in the Nucleocapsid gene. Additionally, the prevalence of worldwide-found variant D614G in the Spike (98.9% in Costa Rica), ORF8 L84S (1.1%) is similar to what is found elsewhere. Interestingly, the frequency of mutation T1117I in the Spike has increased during the current pandemic wave beginning in May 2020 in Costa Rica, reaching 29.2% detection in the full genome analyses in November 2020. This variant has been observed in less than 1% of the GISAID reported sequences worldwide in all the 2020. Structural modeling of the Spike protein with the T1117I mutation suggest a potential effect on the viral oligomerization needed for cell infection, but no differences with other genomes on transmissibility, severity nor vaccine effectiveness are predicted. Nevertheless, in-vitro experiments are required to support these in-silico findings. In conclusion, genome analyses of the SARS-CoV-2 sequences over the course of COVID-19 pandemic in Costa Rica suggest introduction of lineages from other countries as travel bans and measures were lifted, similar to results found in other studies, as well as an increase in the Spike-T1117I variant that needs to be monitored and studied in further analyses as part of the surveillance program during the pandemic.

Unravelling the evolutionary relationships of hepaciviruses within and across rodent hosts

Hepatitis C virus (HCV; genus Hepacivirus) represents a major public health problem, infecting about 3 % of the human population ({+/-} 185,000,000 people). Because no plausible animal reservoir carrying closely related hepaciviruses has been identified, the zoonotic origins of HCV still remain elusive. Motivated by recent findings of divergent hepaciviruses in rodents and a plausible African origin of HCV genotypes, we have screened a comprehensive collection of small mammals samples from seven sub-Saharan African countries. Out of 4,303 samples screened, 80 were found positive for the presence of hepaciviruses in 29 different host species. We here report 56 novel genomes that considerably increase the diversity of three divergent rodent hepacivirus lineages, which previously were almost exclusively represented by New World and European hepaciviruses. Further-more, we provide undisputable evidence for hepacivirus co-infections in rodents, which remarkably, we exclusively but repeatedly found in four sampled species of brush-furred mice. We also point at hepacivirus co-infections indirectly in different animal hosts by demonstrating evidence for recombination within specific host lineages. Our study considerably expands the available hepacivirus genomic data and elucidates the relatively deep evolutionary history that these pathogens have in rodents compared to other mammalian hosts. Overall, our results emphasize the importance of rodents as a potential hepacivirus reservoir and as models for investigating HCV infection dynamics.

Human IFITM3 restricts Chikungunya virus and Mayaro virus infection and is susceptible to virus-mediated counteraction

Interferon-induced transmembrane (IFITM) proteins restrict infection by enveloped viruses through interfering with membrane fusion and virion internalisation. The role of IFITM proteins during alphaviral infection of human cells and viral counteraction strategies remain largely unexplored. Here, we characterized the impact of IFITM proteins and variants on entry and spread of Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and Mayaro virus (MAYV) in human cells, and provide first evidence for a CHIKV-mediated antagonism of IFITM proteins. IFITM1, 2 and 3 restricted infection at the level of alphavirus glycoprotein-mediated entry, both in the context of direct infection and during cell-to-cell transmission. Relocalization of normally endosomal IFITM3 to the plasma membrane resulted in the loss of its antiviral activity. rs12252-C, a naturally occurring variant of IFITM3 that has been proposed to associate with severe influenza in humans, restricted CHIKV, MAYV and influenza A virus infection as efficiently as wild-type IFITM3. Finally, all antivirally active IFITM variants displayed reduced cell surface levels in CHIKV-infected cells involving a posttranscriptional process mediated by one or several non-structural protein(s) of CHIKV.

At least seven distinct rotavirus genotype constellations in bats with evidence of reassortment and zoonotic transmissions

Bats host many viruses pathogenic to humans, and increasing evidence suggests that Rotavirus A (RVA) also belongs to this list. Rotaviruses cause diarrheal disease in many mammals and birds, and their segmented genomes allow them to reassort and increase their genetic diversity. Eighteen out of 2,142 bat fecal samples (0.8%) collected from Europe, Central America and Africa were PCR-positive for RVA and 11 of those were fully characterized using viral metagenomics. Upon contrasting their genomes with publicly available data, at least 7 distinct bat RVA genotype constellations (GCs) were identified, including evidence of reassortments and 6 novel genotypes. Some of these constellations are spread across the world, whereas others appear to be geographically restricted. Our analyses also suggest that several unusual human and equine RVA strains might be of bat RVA origin, based on their phylogenetic clustering, despite varying levels of nucleotide sequence identities between them. Although SA11 is one of the most widely used reference strains for RVA research and forms the backbone of a reverse genetics system, its origin remained enigmatic. Remarkably, the majority of the genotypes of SA11-like strains were shared with Gabonese bat RVAs, suggesting a potential common origin. Overall, our findings suggest an underexplored genetic diversity of RVAs in bats, which is likely only the tip of the iceberg. Increasing contact between humans and bat wildlife will further increase the zoonosis risk, which warrants closer attention to these viruses. ImportanceThe increased research on bat coronaviruses after SARS-CoV and MERS-CoVallowed the very rapid identification of SARS-CoV-2. This is an excellent example of the importance of knowing viruses harbored by wildlife in general and bats in particular, for global preparedness against emerging viral pathogens. The current effort to characterize bat rotavirus strains from 3 continents shed light on the vast genetic diversity of rotaviruses and also hinted at a bat origin for several atypical rotaviruses in humans and animals, implying that zoonoses of bat rotaviruses might occur more frequently than currently realized.

T cell responses to nonstructural protein 3 distinguish infections by Dengue and Zika viruses

The 2015-16 Zika virus (ZIKV) epidemic in the Americas and the Caribbean demonstrates that clinical assays to detect, distinguish, and characterize immune responses to flaviviral infections are needed. ZIKV and dengue virus (DENV) are mosquito-transmitted flaviviruses sharing overlapping geographical distribution and have significant sequence similarity that can increase the potential for antibody and T cell cross-reaction. Using nonstructural protein 1-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), we determine the serostatus of individuals living in a DENV- and ZIKV-endemic region in Brazil, identifying individuals with primary DENV (pDENV) and ZIKV (pZIKV), ZIKV with primary DENV (ZIKVwpDENV), and secondary DENV (sDENV) infections; pDENV and pZIKV were further confirmed by neutralization tests. Development of an enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assay for DENV and ZIKV structural and nonstructural (NS) protein antigens enables us to distinguish infections by these viruses based on T cells and to characterize those responses. We find that IFN-{gamma} and TNF- T cell responses to NS3 differentiates DENV and ZIKV infections with 94% sensitivity and 92% specificity. In general, we also show that pDENV and sDENV cases and pZIKV and ZIKVwpDENV cases elicit similar T cell response patterns, and that HIV-infected individuals have T cell responses that are lower in magnitude compared to HIV-negative individuals. These results have important implications for DENV and ZIKV diagnostic and vaccine development and provide critical insights into the T cell response in individuals with multiple flaviviral infections.
