The history of giant viruses began in 2003 with the identification of Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus. Since then, giant viruses of amoeba enlightened an unknown part of the viral world, and every discovery and characterization of a new giant virus ...

Stem-Loop RNA Hairpins in Giant Viruses: Invading rRNA-Like Repeats and a Template Free RNA
We examine the hypothesis that de novo template-free RNAs still form spontaneously, as they did at the origins of life, invade modern genomes, contribute new genetic material.

O-Linked glycosylation in Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus [PDF]
Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus is a member of the giant nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses, infecting various Acanthamoeba spp. The genomes of giant viruses encode components previously thought to be exclusive to cellular life, such as proteins ...

Luca : à la recherche du plus proche ancêtre commun universel [PDF]
L’application des méthodes de la biologie moléculaire à l’étude des premières étapes de l’évolution a montré que le monde vivant pouvait être divisé en trois domaines : archées, bactéries et eucaryotes.

Towards single particle imaging of human chromosomes at SACLA [PDF]
Single particle imaging (SPI) is one of the front-page opportunities which were used to motivate the construction of the first x-ray free electron lasers (XFELs).

Virus evolution : the emergence of new ideas (and re-emergence of old ones)
Reputed intractable, the question of the origin of viruses has long been neglected. In the modern literature 'Virus evolution' has come to refer to study more akin to population genetics, such as the world-wide scrutiny on new polymorphisms appearing ...

Time-, Frequency-, and Wavevector-Resolved X-Ray Diffraction from Single Molecules
Using a quantum electrodynamic framework, we calculate the off-resonant scattering of a broad-band X-ray pulse from a sample initially prepared in an arbitrary superposition of electronic states.
