Model of virophage integration into the cell genome following the Mavirus mechanism.
Cells with (Ci) or without an integrated virophage (Cx) can be infected by a virus. Infection of Cx cells by a virus results in lysis and release of viruses, while infection of Ci cells by a virus leads to virophage reactivation and release of viruses ...

How the virophage compels the need to readdress the classification of microbes [PDF]
, 2015 The discovery of Mimivirus opened the door to reclassifying viruses and microorganisms. Because the definition of a virus had been based on their putative small size, giant viruses have been widely neglected, as have their own viral parasites: the ...

iScience, 2018 Summary: A clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-like “mimivirus virophage resistance element” (MIMIVIRE) system, which contains specific cascade genes and a CRISPR array against virophages, was reported in mimiviruses.

Model of virophage integration into the cell genome following the Sputnik mechanism.
Cells with (Ci) or without an integrated virophage (Cx) can be infected by a virus (G) or by a virus-virophage complex ([Complex]). Infection of Cx cells by a virus results in lysis and virus release, while infection of Ci cells by a virus leads to ...

, 2023 The detailed proteomic analysis of Marseilleviridae icosahedral capsids revealed that the two most abundant protein components of the virions were the Major Capsid Protein (MCP) and the product of an ORFan gene conserved in all Marseilleviridae .

Metagenomic Characterization of the Viral Community of the South Scotia Ridge
Viruses, 2019 Viruses are the most abundant biological entities in aquatic ecosystems and harbor an enormous amount of genetic diversity. Whereas their influence on marine ecosystems is widely acknowledged, current information about their diversity remains limited. We

Metagenomic Analysis of Virus Diversity and Relative Abundance in a Eutrophic Freshwater Harbour
Viruses, 2019 Aquatic viruses have been extensively studied over the past decade, yet fundamental aspects of freshwater virus communities remain poorly described. Our goal was to characterize virus communities captured in the >0.22 µm size-fraction seasonally ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Microbial communities in glacial ecosystems are diverse, active, and subjected to strong viral pressures and infection rates. In this study we analyse putative virus genomes assembled from three dsDNA viromes from cryoconite hole ecosystems of Svalbard ...

System outcomes depending on the virophage infection mechanism (log-log plot).
We explored the outcome of the Mavirus and Sputnik models by varying the integration rates (λ) and the inhibition parameter (f), and mapping the dynamical outcomes.
