The treatment is complicated because there are no approved safe and specific drugs for adenovirus infections. Here, we present evidence that 17-(Allylamino)-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), an inhibitor of Hsp90 chaperone, decreases the rate of human adenovirus 5 (HAdV-5) replication in cell cultures by 95%. 17-AAG inhibited the transcription of early and late genes of HAdV-5, replication of viral DNA, and expression of viral proteins. 6 h after infection, Hsp90 inhibition results in a 6.3-fold reduction of the newly synthesized E1A protein level without a decrease in the E1A mRNA level. However, the Hsp90 inhibition does not increase the decay rate of the E1A protein that was constitutively expressed in the cell before exposure to the inhibitor. The co-immunoprecipitation proved that E1A protein interacted with Hsp90. Altogether, the presented results show, for the first time. that Hsp90 chaperones newly synthesized, but not mature, E1A protein. Because E1A serves as a transcriptional co-activator of adenovirus early genes, the anti-adenoviral activity of the Hsp90 inhibitor might be explained by the decreased E1A level.A novel member of the Carlavirus genus, provisionally named soybean carlavirus 1 (SCV1), was discovered by RNA-seq analysis of randomly collected soybean leaves in Illinois, USA. The SCV1 genome contains six open reading frames that encode a viral replicase, triple gene block proteins, a coat protein (CP) and a nucleic acid binding protein. The proteins showed highest amino acid sequence identities with the corresponding proteins of red clover carlavirus A (RCCVA). The predicted amino acid sequence of the SCV1 replicase was only 60.6% identical with the replicase of RCCVA, which is below the demarcation criteria for a new species in the family Betaflexiviridae. The predicted replicas
