Abstract
A novel polyomavirus (PyVs) comprising 5,422 bp was identified by high-throughput sequencing (HTS) in pooled organs of nutria (Myocastor coypus). The new genome displays the archetypal organization of PyVs, which includes open reading frames for the regulatory proteins small T antigen (sTAg) and large T antigen (LTAg), as well as for the capsid proteins VP1, VP2 and VP3. Based on the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) Polyomaviridae Study Group criteria, this genome comprises a new PyVs species for the Alphapolyomavirus genus and is putatively named “Myocastor coypus Polyomavirus 1” . The complete genome sequence of this Myocastor coypus Polyomavirus 1 (McPyV1) isolate is publically available under the GenBank accession no. MH182627.
