Genomics, Transcriptomics, and Proteomics of SSV1 and Related Fusellovirus: A Minireview
Viruses, 2022 Saccharolobus spindle-shaped virus 1 (SSV1) was one of the first viruses identified in the archaeal kingdom. Originally isolated from a Japanese species of Saccharolobus back in 1984, it has been extensively used as a model system for genomic ...

Influence of soil properties on archaeal diversity and distribution in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica [PDF]
, 2014 Archaea are the least understood members of the microbial community in Antarctic mineral soils. Although their occurrence in Antarctic coastal soils has been previously documented, little is known about their distribution in soils across the McMurdo Dry ...

Development of a genetic system for the archaeal virus Sulfolobus turreted icosahedral virus (STIV)
Virology, 2011 Our understanding of archaeal viruses has been limited by the lack of genetic systems for examining viral function. We describe the construction of an infectious clone for the archaeal virus Sulfolobus turreted icosahedral virus (STIV). STIV was isolated from a high temperature (82°C) acidic (pH 2.2) hot spring in Yellowstone National Park and ...

Insights into a Viral Lytic Pathway from an Archaeal Virus-Host System [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2013 ABSTRACT Archaeal host cells infected by Sulfolobus turreted icosahedral virus (STIV) and Sulfolobus islandicus rod-shaped virus 2 (SIRV2) produce unusual pyramid-like structures on the cell surface prior to virus-induced cell lysis.

Eukaryotic-Like Virus Budding in
mBio, 2016 Similar to many eukaryotic viruses (and unlike bacteriophages), viruses infecting archaea are often encased in lipid-containing envelopes. However, the mechanisms of their morphogenesis and egress remain unexplored.

The helicase XPD unwinds bubble structures and is not stalled by DNA lesions removed by the nucleotide excision repair pathway [PDF]
, 2010 Xeroderma pigmentosum factor D (XPD) is a 5'-3' superfamily 2 helicase and the founding member of a family of DNA helicases with iron-sulphur cluster domains.

The lysis mechanism of the haloarchaeal virus HFTV1
Cell ReportsSummary: Tailed bacteriophages can lyse their host with help of the holin-endolysin system. However, for archaeal tailed viruses (arTVs), whose archaeal hosts have a fundamentally different cell envelope, lysis mechanisms are unknown.

Revisiting evolutionary trajectories and the organization of the Pleolipoviridae family.
PLoS Genetics, 2023 Archaeal pleomorphic viruses belonging to the Pleolipoviridae family represent an enigmatic group as they exhibit unique genomic features and are thought to have evolved through recombination with different archaeal plasmids.
