Genetic diversity and recombination of enterovirus G strains in Japanese pigs: High prevalence of strains carrying a papain-like cysteine protease sequence in the enterovirus G population.

ABSTRACT: To study the genetic diversity of enterovirus G (EV-G) among Japanese pigs, metagenomics sequencing was performed on fecal samples from pigs with or without diarrhea, collected between 2014 and 2016. Fifty-nine EV-G sequences, which were >5,000 nucleotides long, were obtained. By complete VP1 sequence analysis, Japanese EV-G isolates were classified into G1 (17 strains), G2 (four strains), G3 (22 strains), G4 (two strains), G6 (two strains), G9 (six strains), G10 (five strains), and a new genotype (one strain). Remarkably, 16 G1 and one G2 strain identified in diarrheic (23.5%; four strains) or normal (76.5%; 13 strains) fecal samples possessed a papain-like cysteine protease (PL-CP) sequence, which was recently found in the USA and Belgium in the EV-G genome, at the 2C-3A junction site. This paper presents the first report of the high prevalence of viruses carrying PL-CP in the EV-G population. Furthermore, possible inter- and intragenotype recombination events were found among EV-G strains, including G1-PL-CP strains. Our findings may advance the understanding of the molecular epidemiology and genetic evolution of EV-Gs.

Project description:Bovine enterovirus (BEV) consisting of enterovirus species E (EV-E) and F (EV-F) is the causative agent associated with respiratory and gastrointestinal diseases in cattle. Here, we reported the characterization, genetic diversity, and recombination of novel BEV strains isolated from the major cattle-raising regions in China during 2012-2018. Twenty-seven BEV strains were successfully isolated and characterized. Molecular characterization demonstrated that the majority of these novel BEV strains (24/27) were EV-E, while only few strains (3/27) were EV-F. Sequence analysis revealed the diversity of the circulating BEV strains such as species and subtypes where different species or subtype coinfections were detected in the same regions and even in the same cattle herds. For the EV-E, two novel subtypes, designated as EV-E6 and EV-E7, were revealed in addition to the currently reported EV-E1-EV-E5. Comparative genomic analysis revealed the intraspecies and interspecies genetic exchanges among BEV isolates. The representative strain HeN-B62 was probably from AN12 (EV-F7) and PS-87-Belfast (EV-F3) strains. The interspecies recombination between EV-E and EV-F was also discovered, where the EV-F7-AN12 might be from EV-E5 and EV-F1, and EV-E5-MexKSU/5 may be recombined from EV-F7 and EV-E1. The aforementioned results revealed the genetic diversity and recombination of novel BEV strains and unveiled the different BEV species or subtype infections in the same cattle herd, which will broaden the understanding of enterovirus genetic diversity, recombination, pathogenesis, and prevention of disease outbreaks.ImportanceBovine enterovirus (BEV) infection is an emerging disease in China that is characterized by digestive, respiratory, and reproductive disorders. In this study, we first reported two novel EV-E subtypes detected in cattle herds in China, unveiled the coinfection of two enterovirus species (EV-E/EV-F) and different subtypes (EV-E2/EV-E7, EV-E1/EV-E7, and EV-E3/EV-E6) in the same cattle herds, and revealed the enterovirus genetic exchange in intraspecies and interspecies recombination. These results provide an important update of enterovirus prevalence and epidemiological aspects and contribute to a better understanding of enterovirus genetic diversity, evolution, and pathogenesis.
