Giant viruses are extraordinary members of the virosphere due to their structural complexity and high diversity in gene content. Haptophytes are ecologically important primary producers in the ocean, and all known viruses that infect haptophytes are giant viruses. Our in-depth electron microscopic, ...

Giant panda picorna-like virus Genome sequencing
Latency is a common strategy in a wide range of viral lineages, but its prevalence in giant viruses remains unknown. Here we describe the activity and viral production from a 617 kbp integrated giant viral element in the model green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. We resolve the integrated viral reg...

Giant viruses are large DNA viruses that infect unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes and form exceptionally large extracellular particles. (Meta)genomics and (meta)transcriptomics have provided insight into their diverse coding repertoire, but many of the proteins remain to be characterized as t...

AGO protein immunoprecipitation was combined with high-throughput sequencing of associated small RNAs. AGO2, AGO10, and to a lesser extent AGO1 were shown to associate with siRNAs derived from silencing suppressor (HC-Pro)-deficient TuMV-AS9, but not with siRNAs derived from wild-type TuMV. Co-immun...

Acanthamoeba-infecting Mimiviridae belong to three clades: Mimiviruses (A), Moumouviruses (B) and Megaviruses (C). The uniquely complex mobilome of these giant viruses includes virophages and linear 7 kb-DNA molecules called “transpovirons”. We recently isolated a new virophage (Zamilon vitis) and t...

We characterized regions of underrepresentation that are specific to mouse polyploid trophoblast giant cells. We performed array Comparative Genomics Hybridization (aCGH) to examine copy number variation (CNV) in mouse polyploid trophoblast giant cells (TGCs). We performed the following experiments...

In this study, total RNA was extracted from cultures of Cafeteria infected with the Cafeteria roenbergensis virus BV-PW1 (CroV) and hybridised to a CroV microarray in order to determine the temporal expression profile during infection. A straightforward measure of whether each spot was on or off was...
ORGANISM(S): Cafeteria roenbergensis virus BV-PW1 
Nested parasitic chains are common schemes in nature, not limited to cellular organisms. Some giant viruses infecting protists are hyperparasitized by smaller viruses named virophages. Both can carry episomal plasmid-like DNA molecules known as transpovirons in their particles. They all share common...
