Summary

The family Phenuiviridae includes 24 genera and 223 species for 242 viruses with segmented negative-sense or ambisense RNA genomes of 8.1–25.1 kb in total (Table 1 Phenuiviridae). Virions are typically enveloped with spherical or pleomorphic morphology, but non-enveloped filamentous virions have also been reported. Individual RNA genome segments have partially complementary termini. Phenuivirid genomes generally have four genes encoding structural proteins (L, Gn, Gc, and N). However, several phenuivirid genomes lack genes for Gn and Gc and many phenuivirid genomes encode additional non-structural proteins, such as an interferon response inhibitor protein, an apoptosis inhibitor protein, a movement protein (MP) and a viral suppressor protein of RNA silencing (VSR), in additional genes or in alternative open reading frames. The family is ecologically diverse with members infecting humans and livestock animals, birds, crustaceans, plants and fungi. Phenuivirids have also been detected in invertebrates, including arthropods, some of which act as biological vectors for transmission to other animals or plants, or may serve as their unique host. Phenuivirids include important pathogens of humans and livestock, and have an impact on seafoods and agricultural crops.

Virion

Morphology

Phenuivirids that produce enveloped particles mainly infect vertebrates and invertebrates. By contrast, phenuivirids that produce nonenveloped particles mainly infect plants and fungi, as well as their arthropod vectors. Enveloped particles are spherical or pleomorphic, 80–120 nm in diameter, and have surface glycoprotein projections of 5–10 nm that are embedded in lipid bilayer envelopes approximately 5 nm thick (Figure 1 Phenuiviridae). Envelopes are usually derived from cellular Golgi membranes, or on occasion, from cell-surface membranes. Nonenveloped filamentous particles are spiral-shaped, branched or like a panhandle, 2–2.5 nm in diameter, with lengths proportional to the lengths (200–3000 nm) of the segmented genomic RNAs (Figure 1 Phenuiviridae).

Figure 1 Phenuivridae. (Left) Diagrammatic representation of an enveloped phenuivirid virion in cross-section. The surface spikes comprise two glycoproteins termed Gn and Gc (previously referred to as G1 and G2). The three helical nucleocapsids are panhandled in shape and comprise one each of the negative-sense RNA segments (L segment or RNA1, large or first; M segment or RNA2, medium or second; S segment or RNA3, small or third) encapsidated by N protein and associated with the L protein.

Physicochemical and physical properties

The relative molecular mass (Mr) of enveloped virions is 300×10⁶ to 400×10⁶ with an S20, W of 350–500. Virion buoyant densities in sucrose and CsCl are 1.16–1.18 and 1.20–1.21 g cm⁻³, respectively. Virions are sensitive to heat, lipid solvents, detergents, and formaldehyde. Non-enveloped virions are separated into four or five components by sucrose density gradient centrifugation, but form one component with a buoyant density 1.282–1.288 g cm⁻³ when centrifuged to equilibrium in CsCl solutions (Gingery et al., 1981, Hibino et al., 1985a, Ishikawa et al., 1989).

Nucleic acid

The viral genome comprises two to eight single-stranded molecules of negative-sense or ambisense RNA, which total 8.1–25.1 kb. The terminal nucleotides of each genome RNA segment are base-paired, forming non-covalently closed RNP complexes. The terminal sequences of genome segments are conserved among viruses of each genus but are different from those of viruses of other genera. The genomic RNAs are not modified at their 5′-termini. The Mr of the genome ranges from 4.8×10⁶–8×10⁶ and this constitutes 1–2% of the virion by weight. Viral mRNAs are not polyadenylated and are truncated relative to the genomic RNAs at their 3′-termini. The mRNAs have 5′-methylated caps and 10–18 non-templated nucleotides at their 5′-termini derived from host-cell mRNAs. For details, see the individual genus pages.

Proteins

Most phenuivirids encode four structural proteins, a large protein (L), two external glycoproteins (Gn and Gc), and a nucleocapsid protein (N) ; however, the glycoproteins are not encoded by all members.

Lipids

Enveloped virions contain 20–30% lipids by weight. Lipids are derived from the cellular membranes from which viruses mature and include phopholipids, sterols, fatty acids, and glycolipids. Non-enveloped virions do not contain lipids.

Carbohydrates

Enveloped virions contain 2–7% carbohydrate by weight. Asparagine-linked sugars on the Gn and Gc proteins are largely of the high mannose type when viruses are grown in vertebrate cells. Non-enveloped virions do not contain carbohydrates.

Genome organization and replication

The general genome organization for viruses of each genus is shown in Figure 2 Phenuiviridae. The viral genome is usually comprised of three molecules designated the large segment (L segment or RNA1), the medium segment (M segment or RNA2), and the small segment (S segment or RNA3). Some phenuivirids have up to five additional segments. For almost all phenuivirids, L segment or RNA1 is a negative-sense RNA and encodes the L protein. M segment or RNA2 is a negative-sense RNA and encodes the external Gn and Gc proteins or a non-structural MP (bocaviruses, laulaviruses and rubodviruses). S segment or RNA3 encodes N.

Figure 2 Phenuivridae. Genome organization of members of each genus in the family Phenuiviridae. Coloured boxes depict ORFs that encode N, nucleocapsid protein; Gn and Gc, external glycoproteins; GP, glycoprotein precursor; and L, large protein. White boxes depict ORFs that encode MP, non-structural cell-to-cell movement protein; NCP, major non-capsid protein; NSm, non-structural protein on the M segment; NSs, non-structural protein on the S segment; and VSR, viral suppressor of RNA silencing.

Many phenuivirids encode additional non-structural proteins (NSs) in additional genes or in alternative open reading frames. These include an interferon response inhibitor protein that impacts interferon production in host cells and viral virulence, an apoptosis inhibitor protein that targets to the mitochondrial outer membrane and exerts an antiapoptotic function, a movement protein (MP) that enables cell-to-cell movement in plant and fungus hosts, and a viral suppressor protein of RNA silencing (VSR) that counteracts host antiviral defence mechanisms based on RNA silencing of the vRNA. Phleboviruses encode a non-structural protein (NSm) in a pre-glycoprotein coding region which can act as an apoptosis antagonist. In the case of mechloroviruses and tenuiviruses, RNA2 exhibits an ambisense coding strategy. Tenuivirus RNA2 encodes a glycoprotein-like non-structural protein and a VSR. The S segment or RNA3 of bandaviruses, coguviruses, fusavirus, mobuviruses, phleboviruses, tenuiviruses and uukuviruses is ambisense and encodes a non-structural protein. The phlebovirus non-structural protein acts as an interferon antagonist. The tenuivirus non-structural protein shows activity of VSR. Horwuviruses, tenuiviruses, and wenriviruses have a fourth RNA, designated as the S2 segment or RNA4. The horwuvirus and wenrivirus S2 segment is a negative-sense RNA and encodes a non-structural protein of unknown function. The tenuivirus RNA4 is ambisense and encodes two non-structural proteins, MP and a major non-capsid protein (NCP) that accumulates in large amounts in the cells of infected plants and vector insects and is presumably associated with symptom development of infected plants. For details, see the individual genus pages.

All replication processes of phenuivirids, i.e., cellular attachment, entry into host cells, transportation to endosomes, penetrating the cytosol, transcription, translation, replication, virion assembly and virion release, occur in and from the cytoplasm. Cellular attachment of enveloped phenuivirid particles is mediated by an interaction of viral glycoproteins with host cell receptors and attachment factors. Dendritic cell‐specific intercellular adhesion molecule‐3‐grabbing nonintegrin (DC‐SIGN) and liver‐specific intercellular adhesion molecule‐3‐grabbing nonintegrin (L‐SIGN) have been reported as the host cell receptor and attachment factor, respectively. Following attachment, the virion enters the cell via clathrin-mediated or caveolin‐mediated endocytosis. Phenuivirids are trafficked from the periphery into the centre of the cytosol via endosomes along intracellular microtubules. During trafficking, early endosomes exchange various materials with the outside and become more acidic. The acidification leads to pH-induced insertion of the viral Gc fusion peptide into the endosomal membranes. The fusion of viral envelopes and endosomal membranes releases the viral RNP complexes into the cytoplasm for replication and transcription of the viral genome. Transcription of genome vRNA into mRNA starts with a "cap‐snatching mechanism", in which host mRNAs are cleaved at a position close to the 5′ cap, mediated by the endonuclease domain of the L protein, as is typical for bunyavirals. Different from many other negative‐sense RNA viruses that terminate transcription at short poly (U) stretches, phenuivirid genomes do not contain poly(U) sequences and transcription stops at termination signal sequences in the untranslated regions of the genome RNAs. Consequently, mRNAs are not polyadenylated. Replication of the virus-sense genome RNA into virus-complementary RNA starts at the 3′-end of the viral genomic RNA and the RNA disengages from the N protein while replication progresses. Both ends of the synthesized RNA bind to specific sites of L and are encapsulated with N and form the progeny complementary RNPs that are used as the template to synthesize the progeny viral genomic RNAs. The progeny viral genomic RNP complexes in the cytoplasm are transported into the lipid bilayer membrane of the Golgi apparatus. The translated precursor glycoproteins are cleaved into Gn and Gc. After Gn and Gc are modified by N-linked glycans and form heterodimers at the endoplasmic reticulum, Gn and Gc are targeted to, and retained in the Golgi apparatus, where virions assemble and bud. Virions bud into Golgi cisternae and are transported to the cell surface by the secretory pathway.

Non-enveloped tenuiviruses do not have glycoprotein genes; the nonstructural protein encoded on RNA2 plays a role in cellular attachment, entry into host cells, transportation to endosomes, penetrating the cytosol similar to the glycoproteins of enveloped phenuivirids. That is, the protein is cleaved into two proteins, NSvc2-N and NSvc2-C that interact with the viral RNP complexes. The NSvc2-N binds to an unknown receptor of the vector cells, and binding leads to endocytosis followed by entry of the viral RNPs/NSvc2 complexes into endosomes. Under acidic conditions inside the late endosomes of vector cells, NSvc2‐C undergoes a conformational change that triggers cell membrane fusion, which releases viral RNPs/NSvc2‐N complexes into the cytosol. Transcription of genomic vRNA into mRNA starts with a "cap‐snatching mechanism". The mRNAs of tenuiviruses are not polyadenylated and are truncated relative to the vRNA, similar to the phenuivirids with envelopes. In the case of other non-enveloped phenuivirids, viral entry into host cells is presumed to occur through endocytosis of plant or fungal cells via mechanical wounds, but little is known about the mechanisms of virion attachment, host cell entrance, genome assembly and virion release (Hornak et al., 2016, Ferron et al., 2017, Lu et al., 2019, Koch et al., 2021, Kormelink et al., 2021, Xu et al., 2021, Sun et al., 2022).

Biology

Phenuivirids are ecologically diverse, infecting animals including livestock, humans, birds, crustaceans, plants or fungi. Phenuivirids are also found in invertebrates, including arthropods, some of which may serve as unique hosts or may act as biological vectors for transmission to other animals or plants. Phenuivirids include important pathogens of humans, livestock, seafoods and agricultural crops. Phenuivirids are capable of alternately replicating in their vertebrate or plant hosts, and in their arthropod vectors; they are generally are cytolytic for their hosts but cause little or no cytopathogenicity in their arthropod hosts. Different viruses are transmitted by phlebotomine sand-flies, ticks, mosquitoes, plant hoppers or other arthropod vectors. Some viruses have a very narrow host range, especially for arthropod vectors. Transovarial and venereal transmission have been demonstrated for some phenuivirids in their arthropod vectors. In some instances, avian host and/or vector movements may result in virus dissemination. Some viruses cause a reduction in host-cell protein synthesis in vertebrate cells. In natural infections of mammals, viruses are often targeted to a particular organ or cell type. Some viruses induce cell fusion at low pH. Some members have ion-dependent hemagglutinating activity. Genetic reassortment has been demonstrated for certain members both in vitro and in vivo.

Antigenicity

One or both of the envelope glycoproteins have hemagglutinating and neutralizing antigenic properties. Complement-fixing antigenic determinants are principally associated with nucleocapsid protein.

Genus demarcation criteria

The coding-complete sequences of all genome segments may be sufficient for phenuivirus classification. Demarcation of genera is based upon comprehensive considerations of virus phylogenetic relationships, genome organization and ecology (e.g., host range, pathobiology and transmission patterns, etc.).

Species demarcation criteria

The criteria demarcating species in the genus are:

•　Viruses assigned to different species have less than 95% identity in the amino acid sequence of the RdRP

Relationships within the family

Viruses within the same genus form monophyletic clades based upon phylogenetic reconstruction using the L protein sequence (Figure 3 Phenuiviridae).

Figure 3 Phenuiviridae Phylogenetic analysis of phenuivirid genera. Phylogenetic reconstruction is based on a MAFFT-alignment of the RdRP amino acid sequences of phenuivirids using E-INS algorithm. The ML phylogenetic tree was inferred using RaxML-NG performing 1,000 bootstrap replicates. Trees were inferred under the WAG substitution model. Tree branches are proportional to genetic distances between sequences and the scale bars at the bottom indicate substitutions per amino acid. The branches including phleboviruses and uukuviruses are collapsed for clarity. Figures with these regions expanded are shown on the Phlebovirus genus page as Figure 1 Phlebovirus and on the Uukuvirus genus page as Figure 1 Uukuvirus.

Relationships with other taxa

Phenuivirids are closely related to viruses in the bunyaviral families Arenaviridae, Discoviridae, Leishbuviridae, Mypoviridae, Nairoviridae and Wupedeviridae, and more distantly related to viruses in the bunyaviral families Cruliviridae, Fimoviridae, Peribunyaviridae, Phasmaviridae, Tospoviridae and Tulasviridae.
