Emergence of a Novel CRESS-DNA Virus Associated With Swine Reproductive Failure in China [PDF]
The continuous emergence of circular Rep‐encoding single‐stranded (CRESS) DNA viruses across diverse hosts has been closely associated with the occurrence of severe diseases. Four circoviruses within the genus Circovirus have been identified in pigs, including porcine circovirus Type 1 (PCV1), PCV2, PCV3, PCV4, and PCV5.

Pervasive Chimerism in the Replication-Associated Proteins of Uncultured Single-Stranded DNA Viruses [PDF]
Numerous metagenomic studies have uncovered a remarkable diversity of circular replication-associated protein (Rep)-encoding single-stranded (CRESS) DNA viruses, the majority of which are uncultured and unclassified. Unlike capsid proteins, the Reps show

Virus discovery in all three major lineages of terrestrial arthropods highlights the diversity of single-stranded DNA viruses associated with invertebrates [PDF]
Viruses encoding a replication-associated protein (Rep) within a covalently closed, single-stranded (ss)DNA genome are among the smallest viruses known to infect eukaryotic organisms, including economically valuable agricultural crops and livestock ...

Novel circular single-stranded DNA viruses identified in marine invertebrates reveal high sequence diversity and consistent predicted intrinsic disorder patterns within putative structural proteins [PDF]
Viral metagenomics has recently revealed the ubiquitous and diverse nature of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses that encode a conserved replication initiator protein (Rep) in the marine environment.

Dynamics and Conformations of a Full-Length CRESS-DNA Replicase
Circular Rep-encoding single-stranded DNA (CRESS-DNA) viruses encode for a Replicase (Rep) that is essential for viral replication. Rep is a helicase with three domains: an endonuclease, an oligomeric, and an ATPase domain (ED, OD, and AD).

Identification and biochemical characterization of a novel porcine circovirus associated with porcine respiratory and diarrheal diseases [PDF]
Eukaryotic circular Rep encoding single-stranded DNA (CRESS DNA) viruses exhibit high genomic diversity. Four species of circoviruses within the genus Circovirus have been identified in pigs, including the non-pathogenic porcine circovirus type 1 (PCV1),
