Identifies the genome sequence and potential recombination origins of a novel human adenovirus D associated with acute gastroenteritis.
Recombinant HAdV-67 in gastroenteritis warrants enhanced surveillance; extends adenovirus genomics but leaves open clinical and epidemiological roles.
A novel virus of the species human adenovirus D, HAdV-67 (P-New/H9/F25), was first isolated from diarrheal feces of six children in Dhaka City, Bangladesh. The genome of this novel virus may be composed of multiple recombinations among HAdV-9, HAdV-25, HAdV-26, HAdV-33, HAdV-46, and an unknown human adenovirus D which was an origin of HAdV-67.
