Smaller Fleas: Viruses of Microorganisms
Scientifica, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Life forms can be roughly differentiated into those that are microscopic versus those that are not as well as those that are multicellular and those that, instead, are unicellular. Cellular organisms seem generally able to host viruses, and this propensity carries over to those that are both microscopic and less than truly multicellular.

Nucleic and Amino Acid Sequences Support Structure-Based Viral Classification [PDF]
, 2017 Viral capsids ensure viral genome integrity by protecting the enclosed nucleic acids. Interactions between the genome and capsid and between individual capsid proteins (i.e., capsid architecture) are intimate and are expected to be characterized by ...

International Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010 Herpes simplex is implicated in Alzheimer′s disease and viral infection produces Alzheimer′s disease like pathology in mice. The virus expresses proteins containing short contiguous amino acid stretches (5–9aa “vatches” = viralmatches) homologous to APOE4, clusterin, PICALM, and complement receptor 1, and to over 100 other gene products relevant to ...

Importance of amoebae as a tool to isolate amoeba-resisting microorganisms and for their ecology and evolution: the Chlamydia paradigm. [PDF]
, 2014 Free-living amoebae are distributed worldwide and are frequently in contact with humans and animals. As cysts, they can survive in very harsh conditions and resist biocides and most disinfection procedures. Several microorganisms, called amoeba-resisting

New Brazilian giant viruses isolation from environmental samples using a panel of protozoa.
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 The Megavirales are a newly described order capable of infecting different types of eukaryotic hosts. For the most part, the natural host is unknown.
