Phylogeny of the Varidnaviria Morphogenesis Module: Congruence and Incongruence With the Tree of Life and Viral Taxonomy

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Double-stranded DNA viruses of the realm Varidnaviria (formerly PRD1-adenovirus lineage) are characterized by homologous major capsid proteins (MCPs) containing one (kingdom: Helvetiavirae) or two β-barrel domains (kingdom: Bamfordvirae) known as the ...

Transcriptomic evidence of a fourth mininucleovirus (Mininucleoviridae): A rapidly growing family among the Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA viruses (NCLDVs)

open access: yesJournal of Invertebrate Pathology
The Mininucleoviridae are crustacean-infecting viruses thought to drive mortality across aquatic biomes. Three have been characterised from Carcinus maenas, Panulirus argus, and Dikerogammarus haemobaphes. We screened 202 SRA datasets (NCBI) for novel mininucleoviruses from 44 amphipod species.

Mapping the transcriptional landscape of algal resistance to viral infection reveals a core expression program

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1368-1384, November 2025.
Summary Algal blooms and their demise by viruses drive global‐scale ecological processes in the ocean. These blooms form the foundation of marine food webs, regulate microbial communities, and shape biogeochemical cycles. Although algal populations are constantly infected by viruses, resistant subpopulations frequently emerge after the infection.

The Viral Fraction Metatranscriptomes of Lake Baikal

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
This article characterises viral fraction metatranscriptomes (smaller than 0.2 µm) from the pelagic zone of oligotrophic Lake Baikal (Russia). The study revealed the dominance of transcripts of DNA viruses: bacteriophages and algal viruses. We identified

SKP1‐CUL1‐F‐box: Key molecular targets affecting disease progression

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 2, 31 January 2025.
SCF complexes are widely involved in intracellular metabolism. In this paper, we discuss the diverse effects of SCF on crucial cellular processes such as cell cycle progression, cell migration, biological rhythms, DNA replication, cell differentiation, cell, apoptosis, immune response, and disease occurrence.

Closely related viruses of the marine picoeukaryotic alga Ostreococcus lucimarinus exhibit different ecological strategies

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 21, Issue 6, Page 2148-2170, June 2019., 2019
Summary In marine ecosystems, viruses are major disrupters of the direct flow of carbon and nutrients to higher trophic levels. Although the genetic diversity of several eukaryotic phytoplankton virus groups has been characterized, their infection dynamics are less understood, such that the physiological and ecological implications of their diversity ...

Poxvirus Host Range Genes and Virus–Host Spectrum: A Critical Review

open access: yesViruses, 2017
The Poxviridae family is comprised of double-stranded DNA viruses belonging to nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDV). Among the NCLDV, poxviruses exhibit the widest known host range, which is likely observed because this viral family has been more ...
