Characterization of Medusavirus encoded histones reveals nucleosome-like structures and a unique linker histone [PDF]

Nature Communications
The organization of DNA into nucleosomes is a ubiquitous and ancestral feature that was once thought to be exclusive to the eukaryotic domain of life. Intriguingly, several representatives of the Nucleocytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDV) encode histone-

High-throughput generic single-entity sequencing using droplet microfluidics. [PDF]

Imeta
We present Generic Single Entity Sequencing (GSE‐Seq), a droplet‐based workflow that generates monoclonal barcodes by one‐step PCR, performs dissolvable hydrogel‐enabled reactions for genome processing, and attaches barcodes during in‐droplet library preparation. Barcoded fragments are pooled and sequenced with PacBio long‐read sequencing. Barcodes are

ViralRecall—A Flexible Command-Line Tool for the Detection of Giant Virus Signatures in ‘Omic Data

Viruses, 2021
Giant viruses are widespread in the biosphere and play important roles in biogeochemical cycling and host genome evolution. Also known as nucleo-cytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs), these eukaryotic viruses harbor the largest and most complex viral ...

Quantitative assessment of NCLDV–host interactions predicted by co-occurrence analyses [PDF]

, 2020
Abstract Nucleocytoplasmic DNA viruses (NCLDVs) are highly diverse and abundant in marine environments. However, knowledge of their hosts is limited because only a few NCLDVs have been isolated so far.

Metatranscriptomics reveals a shift in microbial community composition and function during summer months in a coastal marine environment

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 920-933, September 2023., 2023
The composition and microbial activity of marine water is expected to vary with seasons and abiotic variables. To characterize both the microbial compositional and functional changes associated with abiotic factors such as pH, temperature, alkalinity, aragonite, calcite and pCO2, here we generate a reference metatranscriptome from the Strait of Georgia,

Informational gene phylogenies do not support a fourth domain of life for nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Mimivirus is a nucleocytoplasmic large DNA virus (NCLDV) with a genome size (1.2 Mb) and coding capacity ( 1000 genes) comparable to that of some cellular organisms.

Tracing the Origin of Genotype II African Swine Fever Virus in China by Genomic Epidemiology Analysis

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
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.

Bacteriophages pass through candle‐shaped porous ceramic filters: Application for the collection of viruses in soil water

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 11, Issue 5, October 2022., 2022
This study proposes to use porous candles as a new tool for collecting soil water viruses. In the first step, the passage of model viruses through the ceramic part of the candles was investigated. Regarding the field application, the experiments carried out showed a successful recovery of viruses, demonstrating the relevance and efficiency of such a ...
