  • Recently, a diverse group of viruses with circular, replication initiator protein(Rep) encoding, single stranded DNA (CRESS-DNA) genomes, were discovered from wide range of eukaryotic organisms ranging from mammals to fungi. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The presence within ORF1 of conserved amino acid sequence motifs, which occur in the Rep proteins of other animal and plant viruses with circular ssDNA genomes (within Circoviridae and Nanoviridae ), suggests that replication of anellovirus DNA may use a rolling circle mechanism of replication.

  • Viruses have been found in bat populations around the world. (wikipedia.org)
  • Although they were initially suspected of being transmitted only by blood transfusion, the global dispersion of the viruses in populations and their detection in various biological samples (e.g. plasma, saliva and feces) suggests combined modes of diffusion, and in particular the spread by saliva droplets.

  • While transmission of rabies from bats to humans usually occurs via biting, most other zoonotic bat viruses are transmitted by direct contact with infected bat fluids like urine, guano, or saliva, or through contact with an infected, non-bat intermediate host. (wikipedia.org)

  • The authors of the study concluded that "the weakened, but not entirely lost, functionality of STING may have profound impact for bats to maintain the balanced state of 'effective response' but not 'over response' against viruses. (wikipedia.org)
  • Though bats harbor diverse viruses, they are rarely lethal to the bat host. (wikipedia.org)
  • Bats harbor all groups of viruses in the Baltimore classification, representing at least 28 families of viruses. (wikipedia.org)
