Discovery and Further Studies on Giant Viruses at the IHU Mediterranee Infection That Modified the Perception of the Virosphere

Viruses, 2019
The history of giant viruses began in 2003 with the identification of Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus. Since then, giant viruses of amoeba enlightened an unknown part of the viral world, and every discovery and characterization of a new giant virus ...

Human papilloma virus-16 causing giant condyloma acuminata [PDF]

Journal of Surgical Case Reports, 2014
A 28-year-old multiparous lady presented to the Gynaecology outpatient department with a 12 × 5 cm warty growth in the vulva. A biopsy of the growth revealed condyloma acuminata of the vulva. Simple vulvectomy was done. A PCR of the specimen detected the presence of human papilloma virus (HPV)-16 which is usually considered as a high-risk HPV type for ...

Analysis of a Marseillevirus Transcriptome Reveals Temporal Gene Expression Profile and Host Transcriptional Shift

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Marseilleviruses comprise a family of large double-stranded DNA viruses belonging to the proposed order “Megavirales.” These viruses have a circular genome of ∼370 kbp, coding hundreds of genes.

Lausannevirus, a giant amoebal virus encoding histone doublets [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, 2011
Summary Large viruses infecting algae or amoebae belong to the NucleoCytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDV) and present genotypic and phenotypic characteristics that have raised major interest among microbiologists. Here, we describe a new large virus discovered in Acanthamoeba castellanii

Microscopic Characterization of the Brazilian Giant Samba Virus [PDF]

Viruses, 2017
Prior to the discovery of the mimivirus in 2003, viruses were thought to be physically small and genetically simple. Mimivirus, with its ~750-nm particle size and its ~1.2-Mbp genome, shattered these notions and changed what it meant to be a virus. Since this discovery, the isolation and characterization of giant viruses has exploded.

A Persistent Giant Algal Virus, with a Unique Morphology, Encodes an Unprecedented Number of Genes Involved in Energy Metabolism

Journal of Virology, 2021
Viruses on Earth are tremendously diverse in terms of morphology, functionality, and genomic composition. Over the last decade, the conceptual gap separating viruses and cellular life has tightened because of the detection of metabolic genes in viral ...

Primary differentiated respiratory epithelial cells respond to apical measles virus infection by shedding multinucleated giant cells

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Measles virus (MeV) is highly infectious by the respiratory route, but respiratory epithelial cells are thought to be resistant to infection through the exposed apical surface and to require infection through the basolateral surface. We show
