Abstract

SFVmmu-DPZ9524 represents the third completely sequenced rhesus macaque simian foamy virus (SFV) isolate, alongside SFVmmu_K3T with a similar SFV-1-type env, and R289HybAGM with a SFV-2-like env. Sequence analysis demonstrates that, in gag and pol, SFVmmu-DPZ9524 is more closely related to R289HybAGM than to SFVmmu_K3T, which, outside of env, is more similar to a Japanese macaque isolate than to the other two rhesus macaque isolates SFVmmu-DPZ9524 and R289HybAGM. Further, we identify bel as another recombinant locus in R289HybAGM, confirming that recombination contributes to sequence diversity in SFV.
