New Reporter Gene-Based Replication Assay Reveals Exchangeability of Replication Factors of <i>Porcine Circovirus</i> Types 1 and 2
26 Aug 2003
Abstract excerpt
Two types of porcine circovirus (PCV), which differ in their pathogenicity, are known. PCV type 2 (PCV2) is the etiological agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in swine, while PCV1 has not yet been linked to a disease. Corroborating earlier observations in PCV1, transcript mapping revealed that the rep gene of PCV2 encodes two products, the full-length protein Rep and the spliced version Rep' and...
