Adenoviridae
Adenoviruses (members of the family (biology), family ''Adenoviridae'') are medium-sized (90–100 nanometer, nm), nonenveloped (without an outer lipid bilayer) viruses with an icosahedral nucleocapsid containing a double-stranded DNA genome. Their name derives from their initial isolation from human adenoids in 1953. They have a broad range of vertebrate hosts; in humans, more than 50 distinct adenoviral serotypes have been found to cause a wide range of Adenovirus infection, illnesses, from mild respiratory infections in young children (the common cold) to life-threatening multi-organ disease in people with a Immunodeficiency, weakened immune system. Virology Classification This family contains the following genus, genera: * ''Aviadenovirus'' * ''Barthadenovirus'' * ''Ichtadenovirus'' * ''Mastadenovirus'' (including all human adenoviruses) * ''Siadenovirus'' * ''Testadenovirus'' Diversity In humans, currently there are 88 human adenoviruses (HAdVs) in seven species (H ...
