Complete genome constellations of two bovine rotavirus A strains isolated in Japan reveal a unique T9 NSP3 genotype.

ABSTRACT: Full genome sequencing of two bovine rotavirus A (RVA) strains isolated in Japan in 2019 revealed two genotype constellations; one had a constellation of G8-P[1]-I2-R2-C2-M2-A3-N2-T9-E2-H3. Thereupon, genotype T9 carried by RVA/Bovine-tc/JPN/AH1041/2022/G8P[1], constitutes a rare NSP3 genotype, and only two unusual Japanese bovine RVA strains have thus far been reported to carry this genotype. The other RVA/Bovine-tc/JPN/AH1207/2022/G6P[5] strain possessed a constellation of G6-P[5]-I2-R2-C2-M2-A3-N2-T6-E2-H3. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that the majority of gene segments were most closely related to Japanese bovine RVAs, suggesting that both strains might have derived through multiple reassortment events from RVA strains circulating within Japanese cattle. The emergence of RVA strains in Japan and their reassortment with locally circulating atypical RVAs could have implications for current vaccination strategies.

Project description: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, which included 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 various 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.IMPORTANCE The increased research on bat coronaviruses after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) allowed 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 sheds light on the vast genetic diversity of rotaviruses and also hints 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.
