Insights into a Viral Lytic Pathway from an Archaeal Virus-Host System [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

Revisiting evolutionary trajectories and the organization of the Pleolipoviridae family.

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Eukaryotic-Like Virus Budding in Archaea

open access: yesmBio, 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.

Identification and characterization of a novel non-structural protein of bluetongue virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is the causative agent of a major disease of livestock (bluetongue). For over two decades, it has been widely accepted that the 10 segments of the dsRNA genome of BTV encode for 7 structural and 3 non-structural proteins.

Archaeal viruses at the cell envelope: entry and egress

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The cell envelope represents the main defense of host that viruses encounter on their way from one cell to another. The cytoplasmic membrane in general is a physical barrier that needs to be crossed both upon viral entry and exit. Therefore, viruses from

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Targeting the intratumoral microbiota to overcome cancer immunotherapy resistance

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review delineates the mechanisms of intratumoral microbiota in cancer immunotherapy resistance, and offers strategies for microbiota‐targeted precision immunotherapy. Abstract Cancer remains a significant global health threat. The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a sophisticated ecological niche that exerts a pivotal effect on treatment outcomes ...

The Architecture and Chemical Stability of the Archaeal Sulfolobus Turreted Icosahedral Virus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2010
ABSTRACT Viruses utilize a diverse array of mechanisms to deliver their genomes into hosts. While great strides have been made in understanding the genome delivery of eukaryotic and prokaryotic viruses, little is known about archaeal virus genome delivery and the associated particle changes. The Sulfolobus

Virus-host dynamics in archaeal groundwater biofilms and the associated bacterial community composition

open access: yesViruses, 2023
ABSTRACT Lytic viruses can be prevalent in deep groundwater, yet their spatial and temporal distribution in such an ecosystem remains unexplored. Here, we tackle this gap of knowledge by studying viral infections in individual, archaea-dominated biofilm flocks sampled from deep anoxic groundwater over a period of ...

DNA-Interacting Characteristics of the Archaeal Rudiviral Protein SIRV2_Gp1

open access: yesViruses, 2017
Whereas the infection cycles of many bacterial and eukaryotic viruses have been characterized in detail, those of archaeal viruses remain largely unexplored.
