Metagenomic detection of Mimiviridae reads in upper respiratory tract samples of SARS-CoV-2 patients
AbstractThe upper respiratory tract (URT) virome is crucial in respiratory health and response to pathogens. While common respiratory viruses are well-studied, the presence and potential impact of giant DNA viruses, such as Mimiviridae, in the human URT remain underexplored.

Lateral Gene Transfer Between Protozoa-Related Giant Viruses of Family Mimiviridae and Chlamydiae
Lateral Gene Transfer Between Protozoa-Related Giant Viruses of Family Mimiviridae and ChlamydiaeObligate intracellular chlamydiae diverged into pathogenic and environmental chlamydiae 0.7-1.4 billion years ago. While pathogenic chlamydiae have adapted to a wide range of vertebrates, environmental chlamydiae inhabit unicellular amoebae, the free-living Acanthamoeba. However, how and why this divergence occurred remains unclear.
