Chimpanzee stool associated circular virus
Chimpanzee stool associated circular virus is a single stranded DNA virus isolated from chimpanzee stool.Genome
The genome is ~2.6 kilobases in length and encodes two open reading frames. The larger of the ORFs encodes the replicase gene and the other the putative capsid protein. A stem-loop and TATA boxes are present in the non coding parts of the sequence.Taxonomy
This virus appears to be related to the bovine stool associated circular virus but to no other known group of viruses.
