PCR-based molecular assays have a central role in polyomavirus diagnostics. To assure optimal perfor-mance, target sequences should be regularly updated according to newly available sequences. The aim of this study was to review our in-house polyomavirus BK (BKV) and JC (JCV) real-time PCR assays. Database analysis revealed variations in the BKV target region which might affect the assay performance, while no significant changes were found in the JCV target region. We compared two degenerate versions of our BKV primers which accommodated at least 95 % of all published genetic variants. Dilutions of cloned viral genomic DNA and probit analysis indicated an analytical sensitivity of the updated BKV assay of 4.15 copies/reaction and that of th...
