A Virophage at the Origin of Large DNA Transposons
Science, 2011 DNA transposons are mobile genetic elements that have shaped the genomes of eukaryotes for millions of years, yet their origins remain obscure. We discovered a virophage that, on the basis of genetic homology, likely represents an evolutionary link ...

MIMIVIRE is a defence system in mimivirus that confers resistance to virophage
Nature, 2016 International audienceSince their discovery, giant viruses have revealed several unique features that challenge the conventional definition of a virus, such as their large and complex genomes, their infection by virophages and their presence of ...

Metagenomics Reveals a Novel Virophage Population in a Tibetan Mountain Lake
Microbes and Environments, 2016 Virophages are parasites of giant viruses that infect eukaryotic organisms and may affect the ecology of inland water ecosystems. Despite the potential ecological impact, limited information is available on the distribution, diversity, and hosts of ...

The virophage as a unique parasite of the giant mimivirus
Nature, 2008 Viruses are obligate parasites of Eukarya, Archaea and Bacteria. Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus ( APMV) is the largest known virus; it grows only in amoeba and is visible under the optical microscope.

Tripartite warfare: decoding the cell-virus-virophage arms race.
Critical reviews in microbiologyGiant viruses constitute a remarkable group of large double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) viruses distinguished by their exceptional structural complexity and genomic features. Their genomes can reach 2.8 Mb, encoding hundreds of proteins, and virion diameters up
