Molecular biology of giant viruses' DNA replication machinery [PDF]

, 2013
Viruses are the most widespread and abundant entity on this planet, further constituting the largest part of the genosphere. The majority of these infectious agents are miniature, having been described as being smaller than the smallest bacteria.

Unveiling Crucivirus Diversity by Mining Metagenomic Data

mBio, 2020
The discovery of cruciviruses revealed the most explicit example of a common protein homologue between DNA and RNA viruses to date. Cruciviruses are a novel group of circular Rep-encoding single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) (CRESS-DNA) viruses that encode capsid

Novel Single-Stranded DNA Virus Genomes Recovered from Chimpanzee Feces Sampled from the Mambilla Plateau in Nigeria [PDF]

, 2017
Metagenomic approaches are rapidly expanding our knowledge of the diversity of viruses. In the fecal matter of Nigerian chimpanzees we recovered three gokushovirus genomes, one circular replication-associated protein encoding single-stranded DNA virus ...

Watson-Crick Base-Pairing Requirements for ssDNA Recognition and Processing in Replication-Initiating HUH Endonucleases

mBio, 2023
Replication-initiating HUH endonucleases (Reps) are sequence-specific nucleases that cleave and rejoin single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) during rolling-circle replication.

A comprehensive genealogy of the replication associated protein of CRESS DNA viruses reveals a single origin of intron-containing Rep [PDF]

, 2019
Abstract Abundant novel circular Rep-encoding ssDNA viruses (CRESS DNA viruses) have been discovered in the past decade, prompting a new appreciation for the ubiquity and genomic diversity of this group of viruses. Although highly divergent in the hosts they infect or are associated with, CRESS DNA viruses are united ...

First Insights into the Occurrence of Circular Single-Stranded DNA Genomes in Asian and African Cattle

Animals, 2023
Circular replicase-encoding single-stranded (CRESS) DNA viruses and other circular DNA agents are increasingly found in various samples and animals. A specific class of these agents—termed bovine meat and milk factors (BMMF)—has been supposed to act as a

Identification and Characterization of Circular Single-Stranded DNA Genomes in Sheep and Goat Milk

Viruses, 2021
In recent years, a variety of circular replicase-encoding single-stranded (CRESS) DNA viruses and unclassified virus-like DNA elements have been discovered in a broad range of animal species and environmental samples. Key questions to be answered concern

Untangling Inositol (Pyro)Phosphate Biology Through Emerging Technologies

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 50, 7 September 2026.
Inositol (pyro)phosphates represent a vital class of intracellular messengers that govern multiple biological processes. The last decade has experienced a surge of interest in the functions of this class of signaling molecules, primarily due to the introduction of several innovative analytical technologies.

Metabolite Variations in Lepidium sativum Seeds Among Different Germplasms: Unraveling the Link Between Environment and Chemical Compounds

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Comparative phytochemical analysis of Lepidium sativum seed populations revealed environmentally driven variation in essential oil composition, while fatty acid profiles remained largely stable across populations. Benzyl nitrile was the dominant essential oil constituent, α‐linolenic acid was the major fatty acid, and all populations exhibited weak ...
