His1, an Archaeal Virus of theFuselloviridae Family That Infects Haloarcula hispanica [PDF]
ABSTRACT A novel archaeal virus, His1, was isolated from hypersaline waters in southeastern Australia. It was lytic, grew only on Haloarcula hispanica (titers of up to 1011 PFU/ml), and displayed a lemon-shaped morphology (74 by 44 nm) previously reported only for a virus of the extreme thermophiles (SSV1).

Structure and assembly of archaeal viruses
International audienceViruses of archaea represent one of the most enigmatic parts of the virosphere. Most of the characterized archaeal viruses infect extremophilic hosts and display remarkable diversity of virion morphotypes, many of which have never ...

The Molecular Mechanism of Cellular Attachment for an Archaeal Virus
Sulfolobus turreted icosahedral virus (STIV) is a model archaeal virus with a pseudo‐T=31 icosahedral virion with a mass of ~64 mega‐Daltons. Although STIV employs pyramidal lysis structures to exit the host, knowledge of the viral entry process is lacking.

In Vivo Assembly of an Archaeal Virus Studied with Whole-Cell Electron Cryotomography [PDF]
We applied whole-cell electron cryotomography to the archaeon Sulfolobus infected by Sulfolobus turreted icosahedral virus (STIV), which belongs to the PRD1-Adeno lineage of dsDNA viruses. STIV infection induced the formation of pyramid-like protrusions with sharply defined facets on the cell surface.

The thermo‐ and acido‐stable ORF‐99 from the archaeal virus AFV1 [PDF]
AbstractAcidianus Filamentous Virus 1 (AFV1), isolated from acidic hot springs, is an enveloped lipid‐containing archaeal filamentous virus with a linear double‐stranded DNA genome. It infects Acidianus, which is a hyperthermostable archaea growing at 85°C and acidic pHs, below pH 3.

Site‐Specific Protein Bioconjugation Through Cellular Incorporation of Noncanonical Amino Acids
Genetic code expansion (GCE) enables site‐specific installation of noncanonical amino acids containing bioorthogonal conjugation handles, allowing precise, homogeneous protein modification. This review examines the principles of orthogonal translation, surveys the chemistries available for chemoselective labeling, and highlights emerging multi‐site ...

Global analysis of viral infection in an archaeal model system
The origin and evolutionary relationship of viruses is poorly understood. This makes archaeal virus-host of particular interest because the hosts generally root near the base of phylogenetic trees, while some of the viruses have clear structural ...
