Blubervirales

Microorganism Orders

Blubervirales is an order of viruses in the class Revtraviricetes, the order to which hepatitis B virus belongs. Its only accepted family is Hepadnaviridae, a family of small enveloped DNA viruses that replicate through an RNA intermediate using their own reverse transcriptase and infect the liver cells of vertebrates; humans, apes and birds are among the natural hosts. The other order of the class is Ortervirales, which holds the retroviruses. Blubervirales sits in the phylum Artverviricota, the kingdom Pararnavirae and the realm Riboviria. Wikipedia has no separate article for the order and its title redirects to the article on Hepadnaviridae, so this entry rests on that article and on the Revtraviricetes article that lists the order.
