An Endogenous Foamy Virus in the Aye-Aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis)
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT
We report the discovery and analysis of an endogenous foamy virus (PSFVaye) within the genome of the aye-aye (
Daubentonia madagascariensis
), a strepsirrhine primate from Madagascar. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that PSFVaye is divergent from all known simian foamy viruses, suggesting an association between foamy viruses and primates since the haplorrhine-strepsirrhine split. The discovery of PSFVaye indicates that primate foamy virus might be more broadly distributed than previously thought.
