They exhibit remarkable diversity, as the list of members of this family is rapidly growing. However, it has yet to be shown how a fuselloviral genome may undergo variation at the levels of both single nucleotides and sequence stretches. Here, we report the isolation and characterization of four novel spindle-shaped viruses, named Sulfolobus spindle-shaped viruses 19 to 22 (SSV19-22), from a hot spring in the Philippines. SSV19 is a member of the genus Alphafusellovirus, whereas SSV20-22 belong to the genus Betafusellovirus The genomes of SSV20-SSV22 are identical except for the presence of two large variable regions, as well as numerous sites of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) unevenly distributed throughout the genomes and enriched in certain regions, including the gene encoding the putative end filament protein VP4. We show that coinfection of the host with SSV20 and SSV22 led to the formation of an SSV21-like virus, presumably through homologous recombination. In addition, large numbers of SNPs were identified in DNA sequences retrieved by PCR amplification targeting the SSV20-22 vp4 gene from the original enrichment culture, indicating the enormous diversity of SSV20-22-like viruses in the environment. The high variability of VP4 is consistent with its potential role in host recognition and binding by the virus.IMPORTANCE How a virus survives in the arms race with its host is an intriguing question. In this study, we isolated and characterized four novel fuselloviruses, named Sulfolobus spindle-shaped viruses 19 to 22 (SSV19-22). Interestingly, SSV20-22 differ primarily in two genomic regions and are apparently convertible through homologous recombination during coinfection. Moreover, sites of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) were identified throughout the genomes of SSV20-22 and, notably, enriched in certain regions, including the gene encoding the putative end filament protein VP4, which is believed to be involved in host recognition and binding by the virus."xsd:string |
