Limestone Canyon virus (LSC) is a single-stranded, negative-sense RNA zoonotic Hantavirus that is genetically similar to Sin Nombre virus which causes Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in humans. HPS causing hantaviruses are found only in the United States and South America.[1]
LSC has not been shown to cause HPS in humans.[2]
Reservoir
The virus was isolated from Peromyscus. Phylogenetic analysis of M genome segment showed LSC to be very distinct from other Peromyscus-borne viruses. Other Peromyscus-associated hantaviruses include Sin Nombre (SNV), New York (NYV), and Monongahela (MGLV).[1]
