title: A novel gemycircularvirus from experimental rats.
abstract: Recently, gemycircularviruses have been found in humans and various species of animals. Here, a novel gemycircularvirus named Ch-zjrat-01 from blood samples of experimental rats was characterized. The novel gemycircularvirus encodes two major proteins, including a capsid protein (Cap) and a replication-associated protein (Rep). Phylogenetic analysis based on the amino acid sequence of Rep indicated that Ch-zjrat-01 clusters with two gemycircularviruses discovered from bird (KF371635) and mosquito (HQ335086), sharing 48.7 and 49.4 % sequence identities with them, respectively.
