Type Species |
(JcDNV) |
The ssDNA genome is about 6 kb in size. Populations of virions encapsidate equal amounts of positive and negative strands. On one strand there are 3 ORFs which encode NS proteins using a single mRNA promoter (7 map units from the end). The four structural proteins are encoded on the complementary strand, using an mRNA promoter that is 9 map units from the end of that strand. Junonia coenia densovirus (JaDNV) has an inverted terminal repeat of 517 nts, the first 96 nts of which can fold to form a T-shaped structure of the type found in the ITR of AAV DNA.
