Sorex araneus polyomavirus 1, formerly known as Human polyomavirus 12 (HPyV12), is a virus of the polyomavirus family that was first identified in human hosts and also infects shrews.[1] It was discovered and reported in 2013 after isolation from the organs of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly the liver.[2] The virus was renamed to Sorex araneus polyomavirus 1 in 2018, after discovery of the same virus in shrews.[1] Infecting multiple hosts is rare among mammalian polyomaviruses.[3]
