Nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) infect various marine eukaryotes. However, little is known about NCLDV diversity and their relationships with eukaryotic hosts in marine environments, the elucidation of which will advance the current ...

Metabolic reconstruction of the near complete microbiome of the model sponge Ianthella basta
Abstract Many marine sponges host highly diverse microbiomes that contribute to various aspects of host health. Although the putative function of individual groups of sponge symbionts has been increasingly described, the extreme diversity has generally precluded in‐depth characterization of entire microbiomes, including identification of syntrophic ...

Exposure to Mimivirus collagen promotes arthritis [PDF]
Collagens, the most abundant proteins in animals, also occur in some recently described nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses such as Mimiviridae, which replicate in amoebae.

Purpose. Metagenomics has revealed that, in addition to the digestive tract, certain viruses are also commonly found in human blood. In order to explore and monitor potential novel viruses, three serum samples of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia were collected at the No. 2 People’s Hospital of Changshu City, China. Materials and Methods.

A pelagic microbiome (viruses to protists) from a small cup of seawater [PDF]
The aquatic microbiome is composed of a multi-phylotype community of microbes, ranging from the numerically dominant viruses to the phylogenetically diverse unicellular phytoplankton.

The pandemic spread of African swine fever (ASF) has caused serious effects on the global pig industry. Virus genome sequencing and genomic epidemiology analysis play an important role in tracking the outbreaks of the disease and tracing the transmission of the virus.

Phaeoviral infections are present in macrocystis, ecklonia and undaria (laminariales) and are influenced by wave exposure in ectocarpales [PDF]
Two sister orders of the brown macroalgae (class Phaeophyceae), the morphologically complex Laminariales (commonly referred to as kelp) and the morphologically simple Ectocarpales are natural hosts for the dsDNA phaeoviruses (family ) that persist as ...

Metagenomic Analysis of Virus Diversity and Relative Abundance in a Eutrophic Freshwater Harbour
Aquatic viruses have been extensively studied over the past decade, yet fundamental aspects of freshwater virus communities remain poorly described. Our goal was to characterize virus communities captured in the >0.22 µm size-fraction seasonally ...

mRNA maturation in giant viruses: variation on a theme [PDF]
International audienceGiant viruses from the Mimiviridae family replicate entirely in their host cytoplasm where their genes are transcribed by a viral transcription apparatus. mRNA polyadenylation uniquely occurs at hairpin-forming palindromic sequences

We report the isolation and complete genome sequencing of a new Mimiviridae family member, infecting Acanthamoeba castellanii, from sewage in Mumbai, India. The isolated virus has a particle size of about 435 nm and a 1,182,200-bp genome.
