Cyvirus cyprinidallo1, also known as Cyprinid herpesvirus 1 (CyHV-1) is a species of virus in the genus Cyprinivirus, family Alloherpesviridae, and order Herpesvirales.[1]

CyHV1 causes carp pox, also known as epithelioma papillosum in common carp (Cyprinus carpio).[2] Cases of CyHV1 are found worldwide and the observed symptoms as a result of infection are both systemic and highly lethal.[3] Evaluations of virus production in relation to temperature demonstrated temperature’s influence on pathogenicity and replication.[3] This, combined with CyHV1’s high mortality rate, may have implications on the common carp population as water temperatures warm with increasing global temperatures.

Background[edit]

Although the symptoms that appear in common carp as a result of CyHV1 have been noted for centuries, the virus was only isolated and classified as a herpesvirus in 1985.[4][5] It is the first of the Cyprinid herpesviruses to be discovered. Viral etiology dates back to 1907, however, isolation was not successful until 1985.[5][6][7] CyHV1 has yet to be cultured, likely because of host and tissue specificity associated with most herpesviruses.[4]

Genome[edit]

Whole genome sequencing revealed that the Cyprinid herpesvirus 1 genome is approximately 291,144 bp, however, this number may be variable due to tandem reiterations.[6] Heterogeneous genome size is often observed in other species of herpesviruses.[6] These short yet complex tandem reiterations are most often seen in the terminal direct repeats; the most prevalent being the telomere-like repeats located towards the genome ends.[6] Although this is characteristic of all Cyvirus species, the telomere-like repeats are the biggest in CyHV1.[6]

The CyHV1 virus has approximately 143 open reading frames (ORFs) in the genome and splicing between protein-coding regions affects 8 of these ORFs.[6] Five gene families have been identified.[6] CyHV1 has multiple genes from each of the ORF2, TNFR, ORF25, RING, and JUNB families.[6] The JUNB family is not seen in other species of Cyvirus and is the first reported JUNB-related sequence found in herpesviruses.[6] JUNB is an oncogene, which may play a role in tumour development as a result of infection with CyHV1.[2][6]

Pathology[edit]

There appear to be two systemic phases of infection, acute and recurring.[6] The initial acute phase is lethal, and survivors often experience the recurring, non-lethal proliferative epidermal phase.[6]

Common carp infected with Cyprinid herpesvirus 1 have been shown to exhibit atypical swimming behaviours, protrusion of the eyes from their cavities, darkening of the skin, and hemorrhaging across the body and the operculum.[2] In the fish that were approaching death, they were observed to have tissue death in the liver, kidney, and intestines.[2] Some of the necrotic cells had been observed to have Cowdry Type A intranuclear inclusion bodies. Infection is more commonly characterized by epidermal tumour growths and hyperplasia.[2]
