Other subviral pathogens
Other subviral pathogens include satellite RNAs and virusoids. Viroids replicate autonomously by using host-encoded RNA polymerase. In contrast, satellite RNAs multiply only in the presence of a helper virus that provides the appropriate RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Some of the larger satellite RNAs may encode a protein. Satellite RNAs are found in plants （e.g. satellite tobacco necrosis virus） and animals. A well known human satellite RNA is hepatitis delta virus （HDV）. HDV is a small single-stranded RNA satellite of hepatitis B virus.
A virusoid is an RNA molecule that does not encode any proteins and depends on a helper virus for replication and capsid formation. Virusoids occur in association with viruses causing plant di 國外優秀生命科學教學用書：基礎分子生物學（影印版）（附光盤） [Fundamental Molecular Biology] 下載 mobi epub pdf txt 電子書
