Smacoviridae is a family of single-stranded
The viruses in this taxon were isolated from faecal samples from insects and vertebrates by metagenomic methods. Little is known about their biology.Taxonomy
The family Smacoviridae is the sole member of the order Cremevirales and together with other families of CRESS DNA viruses is included within the phylum Cressdnaviricota.[5]
The family currently includes the following genera:[3][4]
- Babosmacovirus
- Bonzesmacovirus
- Bostasmacovirus
- Bovismacovirus
- Cosmacovirus
- Dragsmacovirus
- Drosmacovirus
- Felismacovirus
- Huchismacovirus
- Inpeasmacovirus
- Porprismacovirus
- Simismacovirus
Biology
These viruses have single stranded genomes of 2.3–2.8 kilobases in length. The genome encodes two proteins, a Rep (replicator) and a CP (capsid) protein.[citation needed]
