Hidden diversity of soil giant viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Known giant virus diversity is currently skewed towards viruses isolated from aquatic environments and cultivated in the laboratory. Here, we employ cultivation-independent metagenomics and mini-metagenomics on soils from the Harvard Forest, leading to ...

Virus-encoded histone doublets are essential and form nucleosome-like structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceThe organization of genomic DNA into defined nucleosomes has long been viewed as a hallmark of eukaryotes. This paradigm has been challenged by the identification of “minimalist” histones in archaea and more recently by the ...

Chicken interferon-inducible transmembrane protein 3 restricts influenza viruses and lyssaviruses in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Interferon-inducible transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) is an effector protein of the innate immune system. It confers potent, cell-intrinsic resistance to infection by diverse enveloped viruses both in vitro and in vivo, including influenza viruses, West ...

Investigations into the Diversity and Distribution of tRNA and Phylogenetics of Translation Factors in Amoebozoa-Infecting Nucleocytoviricota

open access: yesViruses
Translation is a sine qua non process for life as we know it. Translation factors (TFs) and tRNAs are rare among viruses but are commonly found in giant viruses of the class Megaviricetes.

Natural infection of Aedes aegypti by Chikungunya and Dengue type 2 Virus in a transition area of north-northeast Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Dengue fever, chikungunya, and Zika are diseases caused by viruses transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. In Brazil, the number of human infections is high, but few studies are performed in mosquito vectors.

Virus Genomes from Deep Sea Sediments Expand the Ocean Megavirome and Support Independent Origins of Viral Gigantism

open access: yesmBio, 2019
The nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDV) of eukaryotes (proposed order, “Megavirales”) include the families Poxviridae, Asfarviridae, Iridoviridae, Ascoviridae, Phycodnaviridae, Marseilleviridae, and Mimiviridae, as well as still unclassified ...

Diversity and genomics of giant viruses in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Large double-stranded DNA viruses of the phylum Nucleocytoviricota, often referred to as “giant viruses,” are ubiquitous members of marine ecosystems that are important agents of mortality for eukaryotic plankton.
