Pneumonia is the leading cause of death in children worldwide. It can be caused by a number of known pathogens, but 15-35% of childhood pneumonia are still not associated with an etiologic agent. A pathogen discovery assay allowed us to identify new species of Torque Teno Mini Virus (TTMV, Anelloviridae), named TTMV-LY, in three undiagnosed pleural effusions from children hospitalized with parapneumonic empyema. TTMV are ubiquitous orphan viruses, and their involvement in pathogenesis remains unknown. The respiratory tract was previously described to be a site of anellovirus detection. We investigated the role of these new species in the pathogenesis of severe pneumonia.Full-length TTMV-LY genomes were isolated and in vitro replicated. The ...
