Metagenomic analysis of primary colorectal carcinomas and their metastases identifies potential microbial risk factors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, Volume 15, Issue 12, Page 3363-3384, December 2021., 2021
This work analysed the presence of sequences of bacteria and viruses in primary colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues, compared with corresponding normal colorectal tissues and metastases. We observed a higher viral species diversity and lower bacterial species diversity in primary CRCs than in matched normal tissues.

Zooming on dynamics of marine microbial communities in the phycosphere of Akashiwo sanguinea (Dinophyta) blooms

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 30, Issue 1, Page 207-221, January 2021., 2021
Abstract Characterizing ecological relationships between viruses, bacteria and phytoplankton in the ocean is critical to understanding the ecosystem; however, these relationships are infrequently investigated together. To understand the dynamics of microbial communities and environmental factors in harmful algal blooms (HABs), we examined the ...

Ubiquitous giants: a plethora of giant viruses found in Brazil and Antarctica

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2018
Background Since the discovery of giant viruses infecting amoebae in 2003, many dogmas of virology have been revised and the search for these viruses has been intensified.

A de novo virus-like topology for synthetic virions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A de novo ultra-small topology of viral assembly is reported. The design is a tri-faceted coiled-coil peptide helix, which self-assembles into monodisperse, anionic virions able to encapsulate and transfer both RNA and DNA into human cells.

mRNA maturation in giant viruses: variation on a theme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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

Identification of Capsid/Coat Related Protein Folds and Their Utility for Virus Classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The viral supergroup includes the entire collection of known and unknown viruses that roam our planet and infect life forms. The supergroup is remarkably diverse both in its genetics and morphology and has historically remained difficult to study and ...

Pandoravirus Celtis Illustrates the Microevolution Processes at Work in the Giant Pandoraviridae Genomes

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2018
With genomes of up to 2.7 Mb propagated in μm-long oblong particles and initially predicted to encode more than 2000 proteins, members of the Pandoraviridae family display the most extreme features of the known viral world.
