Mimivirus reveals Mre11/Rad50 fusion proteins with a sporadic distribution in eukaryotes, bacteria, viruses and plasmids [PDF]
Background The Mre11/Rad50 complex and the homologous SbcD/SbcC complex in bacteria play crucial roles in the metabolism of DNA double-strand breaks, including DNA repair, genome replication, homologous recombination and non-homologous end ...

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.

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

Biogeography of marine giant viruses reveals their interplay with eukaryotes and ecological functions [PDF]
海洋巨大ウイルスの地理的分布を全球規模で解明 --海域による特異性が明らかに--. 京都大学プレスリリース. 2020-09-08.Nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs) are ubiquitous in marine environments and infect diverse eukaryotes. However, little is known about their biogeography and ecology in the ocean.

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

Lateral gene exchanges shape the genomes of amoeba-resisting microorganisms. [PDF]
Based on Darwin's concept of the tree of life, vertical inheritance was thought to be dominant, and mutations, deletions, and duplication were streaming the genomes of living organisms.

Insights Into Phylogeny, Diversity and Functional Potential of Poseidoniales Viruses
Our spatio‐temporal metagenomic study of a subtropical estuary successfully identified viruses and their potential hosts. Viral contigs were detected using a consensus approach comprising geNOMAD and VirSorter2. Through virus‐host predictions, we were able to identify, characterise and propose magroviruses and non‐magroviruses associated with ...

Genome and Environmental Activity of a Chrysochromulina parva Virus and Its Virophages
Some giant viruses are ecological agents that are predicted to be involved in the top-down control of single-celled eukaryotic algae populations in aquatic ecosystems.

The African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a major global threat affecting pork production and strengthening biosecurity practices is an urgent priority, especially given the paucity of effective vaccines and antiviral drugs. Mitigation strategies focused on virus inactivation play an important role in controlling ASFV and there is growing recognition ...

Discovery and biological characteristics of Mimivirus [PDF]
Otkriće Mimivirusa (Acanthamoeba polyfaga mimivirus, APMV) potaknulo je velik interes znanstvenika za daljnje otkrivanje značajki, funkcija i same pojave velikih virusa čiji bi APMV mogao biti prvi predstavnik.
