A Brazilian Marseillevirus Is the Founding Member of a Lineage in Family Marseilleviridae [PDF]
In 2003, Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus (APMV) was discovered as parasitizing Acanthamoeba. It was revealed to exhibit remarkable features, especially odd genomic characteristics, and founded viral family Mimiviridae.

The genomic and phylogenetic analysis of <i>Marseillevirus cajuinensis</i> raises questions about the evolution of Marseilleviridae lineages and their taxonomical organization. [PDF]
Marseilleviruses (MsV) are a group of viruses that compose the Marseilleviridae family within the Nucleocytoviricota phylum. They have been found in different samples, mainly in freshwater. MsV are classically organized into five phylogenetic lineages (A/

The Large Marseillevirus Explores Different Entry Pathways by Forming Giant Infectious Vesicles [PDF]
ABSTRACT Triggering the amoebal phagocytosis process is a sine qua non condition for most giant viruses to initiate their replication cycle and consequently to promote their progeny formation. It is well known that the amoebal phagocytosis process requires the recognition of

Faithful to the Marseille tradition: Unique and intriguing-that's how Marseillevirus packs its DNA.
Not only does Marseillevirus bear the name of the city where it was identified, it also encompasses its values and what makes Marseille a wonderful city. Marseillevirus is unique and intriguing. As such, Bryson et al.

Marseillevirus-like virus recovered from blood donated by asymptomatic humans. [PDF]
The study of the human virome is still in its infancy, especially with regard to the viral content of the blood of people who are apparently disease free. In this study, the genome of a new giant virus that is related to the amoeba-infecting pathogen Marseillevirus was recovered from donated blood, using high-throughput sequencing.
