ABSTRACT We report a coding-complete sequence of a yellow fever virus, strain JabSPM02, containing the 3′ untranslated region and all coding regions. The virus was recovered from an infected howler monkey from a rural area in São Paulo State, Brazil. Our findings show that it belongs to the South America 1E genotype.

AbstractFour species of monkeys may have lived in the Maya region in pre-Columbian times: two howler monkey species, the spider monkey, and possibly the capuchin. Simians also played an important role in Maya creation myth and cosmology, and are frequently represented on Maya pottery and in glyphic texts. Scholars disagree, however, on which monkeys are depicted. Here we provide an analysis of 142 monkey images on 97 pots, focusing especially on Classic-period lowland polychromes. Multiple physical characteristics of the primates are considered, along with cultural traits, to provide appropriate biological and cultural contexts and artistic conventions necessary to their interpretation. Besides the well-known scribal roles (attributed to howlers and “Monkey-Men”), we conclude that monkeys commonly take on pictorial and non-pictorial roles that involve carrying or bringing goods such as tribute or cacao. In contexts of liminality, these creatures are often charged with transcending natural and social realms.

The Relationship

1AbstractIn 2007-2009, a ma jor yellow fever virus (YFV) outbreak in Northern Argentina decimated the local howler monkey (Alouatta) population. We explored the relationship between Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 and TLR8 gene variation and YFV susceptibility using samples from Alouatta individuals alive before the YFV outbreak, individuals that died during the outbreak, and individuals that survived the outbreak and are alive today. We measured genetic divergence between Alouatta YFV exposure groups and evaluated Alouatta-specific substitutions for functional consequences. We did not find different allele frequencies in the post-YFV exposure Alouatta group compared to the pre-exposure group. However, we identified three nonsynonymous variants in TLR7 in A. guariba clamitans. Two of these substitutions are under positive selection in functionally important regions of the gene. These unique coding differences in A. guariba clamitans may affect YFV resistance, but more work is necessary to fully explore this hypothesis.
