Promoter Motifs in NCLDVs: An Evolutionary Perspective [PDF]
Viruses, 2017 For many years, gene expression in the three cellular domains has been studied in an attempt to discover sequences associated with the regulation of the transcription process. Some specific transcriptional features were described in viruses, although few

Giant viruses as reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsNucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs; also called giant viruses), constituting the phylum Nucleocytoviricota, can infect a wide range of eukaryotes and exchange genetic material with not only their hosts but also prokaryotes and phages.

Covariance of Marine Nucleocytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses with Eukaryotic Plankton Communities in the Sub-Arctic Kongsfjorden Ecosystem: A Metagenomic Analysis of Marine Microbial Ecosystems [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2023 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 ...

MSphere, 2021 NCLDVs can infect a wide range of eukaryotes, although their life cycle is less dependent on hosts compared to other viruses. However, our understanding of NCLDV-host systems is highly limited because few of these viruses have been isolated so far.

Advantages and Limits of Metagenomic Assembly and Binning of a Giant Virus
MSystems, 2020 Giant viruses have large genomes, often within the size range of cellular organisms. This distinguishes them from most other viruses and demands additional effort for the successful recovery of their genomes from environmental sequence data.

Hidden evolutionary complexity of Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA viruses of eukaryotes
Virology Journal, 2012 Background The Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDV) constitute an apparently monophyletic group that consists of at least 6 families of viruses infecting a broad variety of eukaryotic hosts.

Giant viral signatures on the Greenland ice sheet [PDF]
MicrobiomeBackground Dark pigmented snow and glacier ice algae on glaciers and ice sheets contribute to accelerating melt. The biological controls on these algae, particularly the role of viruses, remain poorly understood.

Identification of a Potential Entry-Fusion Complex Based on Sequence Homology of African Swine Fever and Vaccinia Virus [PDF]
VirusesAfrican swine fever virus (ASFV) belongs to the family of Asfarviridae, part of the group of nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDV). Little is known about the internalization of ASFV in the host cell and the fusion membrane events that take place at
