Tetraparvovirus
Tetraparvovirus are a genus of viruses in the family ''Parvoviridae''. There are six recognized species: '' Chiropteran tetraparvovirus 1'', '' Primate tetraparvovirus 1'', '' Ungulate tetraparvovirus 1'', '' Ungulate tetraparvovirus 2'', '' Ungulate tetraparvovirus 3'', and '' Ungulate tetraparvovirus 4''. History The first member of this genus was identified in 2001 in pig serum and designated Porcine parvovirus 2.Hijikata M, Abe K, Win KM, Shimizu YK, Keicho N, ''et al'' (2001) Identification of new parvovirus DNA sequence in swine sera from Myanmar. Jpn J. Infect. Dis 54: 244-245. The first human tetraparvovirus, PARV4, was described in 2005.Jones MS, Kapoor A, Lukashov VV, Simmonds P, Hecht F, ''et al'' (2005) New DNA viruses identified in patients with acute viral infection syndrome.

Parvoviridae
Parvoviruses are a family of animal viruses that constitute the family ''Parvoviridae''. They have linear, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) genomes that typically contain two genes encoding for a replication initiator protein, called NS1, and the protein the viral capsid is made of. The coding portion of the genome is flanked by telomeres at each end that form into hairpin loops that are important during replication. Parvovirus virions are small compared to most viruses, at 23–28 nanometers in diameter, and contain the genome enclosed in an icosahedral capsid that has a rugged surface. Parvoviruses enter a host cell by endocytosis, travelling to the nucleus where they wait until the cell enters its replication stage. At that point, the genome is uncoated and the coding portion is replicated. Viral messenger RNA (mRNA) is then transcribed and translated, resulting in NS1 initiating replication. During replication, the hairpins repeatedly unfold, are replicated, and refold to chang ...

Primate Tetraparvovirus 1
Primates are a diverse order of mammals. They are divided into the strepsirrhines, which include the lemurs, galagos, and lorisids, and the haplorhines, which include the tarsiers and the simians ( monkeys and apes, the latter including humans). Primates arose 85–55 million years ago first from small terrestrial mammals, which adapted to living in the trees of tropical forests: many primate characteristics represent adaptations to life in this challenging environment, including large brains, visual acuity, color vision, a shoulder girdle allowing a large degree of movement in the shoulder joint, and dextrous hands. Primates range in size from Madame Berthe's mouse lemur, which weighs , to the eastern gorilla, weighing over . There are 376–524 species of living primates, depending on which classification is used. New primate species continue to be discovered: over 25 species were described in the 2000s, 36 in the 2010s, and three in the 2020s. Primates have large ...
