Bopivirus A
is a species in the genus Bopivirus (from bovine picornavivrus).

The genome sequence of a novel bovine picornavirus has been placed on the public databases
(R. Tokarz & W.I. Lipkin, unpub.). It appears to lack a leader polypeptide and is most closely related to the erboviruses. A second genotype has been reported in sheep and goats (László et al., 2021) and a third in deer (Huaman et al., 2021).

Genome organisation:

VPg+5'UTRIRES-II[1A-1B-1C-1D-2Anpgp/2B-2C/3A-3BVPg-3Cpro-3Dpol]3'UTR-poly(A)
