Molecular biology of porcine circovirus: analyses of gene expression and viral replication.
Veterinary Microbiology, 98, 2004, 81-88
Following a description of the genome organization of circoviruses focused on the cap gene and the rep gene, the analysis of the function of the 2 proteins, Rep and Rep', encoded by PCV1 rep gene is reported. A replication assay was performed and showed that PCV1 Rep and Rep' replicated the origin of both PCV1 and PCV2.
