A virus isolated from the blood of a healthy steer and designated DPP53 was shown to have rhabdovirus morphology. Although DPP53 virus was antigenically related to Tibrogargan virus by reciprocal immunofluorescence and neutralization tests, the viruses were distinguishable by neutralization tests. DPP53 virus contained RNA and was sensitive to both ether and chloroform. The geographical distribution of neutralizing antibody to DPP53 virus in Australian cattle corresponded to the distribution of Culicoides brevitarsis indicating that this virus may be arthropod-borne with this midge as a possible vector. Antibody to DPP53 virus was detected in serum from cattle, buffalo, dogs and one horse, but not in serum from deer, pigs, humans or wallabies. Highest virus titres were obtained by growth in Vero and BHK2l cell cultures, but the virus could also be grown in Aedes albopictus cell cultures. Higher virus tit res were obtained when the multiplicity of infection was low. The name advanced for DPP53 virus is 'Coastal Plains' virus.

“…Acute polyarticular disease in humans has been attributed to KOKV (Boughton et Mein et al, 1998), and antibodies are common in people from Far North Queensland (Doherty et al, 1964;Hanna et al, 1999) and New South Wales (Hawkes et al, 1985(Hawkes et al, , 1993. KOKV has been isolated from mosquitoes in Northern Queensland and the Torres Strait (Doherty et al, 1979;Hanna et al, 1999;Johansen et al, 2003Johansen et al, , 2004, the Northern Territory (Standfast et al, 1984), Western Australia (Liehne et al, 1981;Poidinger et al, 2000;Van Den Hurk et al, 2001), New South Wales (Poidinger et al, 2000) and Papua New Guinea (Poidinger et al, 2000), and KOKV-specific neutralizing antibodies have been detected in serum from kangaroos and horses in central Queensland (Doherty et al, 1964).…”

Genetic divergence among members of the Kokobera group of flaviviruses supports their separation into distinct species

The Kokobera virus group comprises mosquito-borne flaviviruses that cluster together phylogenetically. These viruses are unique to Australia and Papua New Guinea, and have been associated with a mild polyarticular disease in humans. Recent isolation of genetically diverse viruses within this group has prompted analysis of their genetic and phenotypic relationships. Phylogenetic analysis based on complete ORF, the envelope gene or the NS5/3′ untranslated region supported the separation of the group into distinct species: Kokobera virus (KOKV), Stratford virus, New Mapoon virus, MK7979 and TS5273. Virulence studies in 3-week-old mice also provided the first evidence that a member of the KOKV group (MK7979) was neuroinvasive after intraperitoneal inoculation. In this context, our recent detection of KOKV group-specific antibodies in horses in the field suggests that these viruses should be considered in the epidemiology of flavivirus encephalitis in Australia.

Evidence of an Antigenic Shift among Palyam Serogroup Orbiviruses

et al. 2004

The Japanese isolates of Palyam serogroup viruses isolated from 1985 to 2001 were investigated for the genome sequence of segments 2 and 7 and were phylogenetically analyzed in comparison with Australian and African isolates of the same serogroup. The nucleotide sequences of segment 7 were highly conserved within Japanese isolates (95.1 to 100%) and between Japanese and Taiwanese isolates (96.0 to 100%), whereas the identities between Japanese and Taiwanese isolates and Australian and African isolates were fairly conserved (84.2 to 92.0%). Phylogenetic analysis based on segment 7 revealed three clusters according to geographical origin. As a result of the nucleotide sequence analysis of segment 2, which encodes a serotype-specific antigen, Japanese isolates were classified into two groups by genome length and nucleotide identities. Four of the nine Japanese isolates were categorized into the same group as prototype strain K
