Giant endogenous viral elements in the genome of the model protist Euglena gracilis reveal past interactions with giant viruses

Journal of Virology
Genomes of giant viruses (phylum Nucleocytoviricota) have increasingly been found integrated into the genomes of diverse eukaryotes. Here, we report eight giant endogenous viral elements (GEVEs) in the genome of the microalgae Euglena gracilis. The GEVEs

Virus evolution : the emergence of new ideas (and re-emergence of old ones)

, 2006
Reputed intractable, the question of the origin of viruses has long been neglected. In the modern literature 'Virus evolution' has come to refer to study more akin to population genetics, such as the world-wide scrutiny on new polymorphisms appearing ...

The Effects of Evolutionary Adaptations on Spreading Processes in Complex Networks

, 2019
A common theme among the proposed models for network epidemics is the assumption that the propagating object, i.e., a virus or a piece of information, is transferred across the nodes without going through any modification or evolution.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

The proteomics of the giant cedratvirus particles reveals unique and shared features with pitho-like viruses

Journal of Virology
Cedratvirus is a giant virus belonging to the order Pimascovirales, a group that includes other viruses such as pithoviruses and orpheoviruses. Cedratviruses infect Acanthamoeba castellanii and have a genome of ~600 kb, encoding ~800 predicted proteins ...

Evidence of a Cellulosic Layer in Pandoravirus massiliensis Tegument and the Mystery of the Genetic Support of Its Biosynthesis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Pandoraviruses are giant viruses of ameba with 1 μm-long virions. They have an ovoid morphology and are surrounded by a tegument-like structure lacking any capsid protein nor any gene encoding a capsid protein. In this work, we studied the ultrastructure
