Phylogeny.fr: the phylogenetic platform designed for non-specialists
Valentin Gorgodian, Olivier Poirot, Alain Schmitt +5
Phylogenetic analysis has become a standard approach across many areas of biology, yet the growing complexity of phylogenetic methods and software remains a major obstacle for non-…
Virus evolution : the emergence of new ideas (and re-emergence of old ones)
Jean-Michel Claverie
Reputed intractable, the question of the origin of viruses has long been neglected. In the modern literature 'Virus evolution' has come to refer to study more akin to population ge…
Giant viruses in the oceans : the 4th Algal Virus Workshop
Jean-Michel Claverie
Giant double-stranded DNA viruses (such as record breaking Acanthamoeba polyphaga Mimivirus), with particle sizes of 0.2 to 0.6 micron, genomes of 300 kbp to 1.200 kbp, and commens…
Mimivirus and the emerging concept of "giant" virus
Jean-Michel Claverie, Hiroyuki Ogata, Stéphane Audic +3
The recently discovered Acanthamoeba polyphaga Mimivirus is the largest known DNA virus. Its particle size (>400 nm), genome length (1.2 million bp) and large gene repertoire (911…
Mimivirus Relatives in the Sargasso Sea
Elodie Ghedin, Jean-Michel Claverie
The discovery and genome analysis of Acanthamoeba polyphaga Mimivirus, the largest known DNA virus, challenged much of the accepted dogma regarding viruses. Its particle size (>400…
Mimivirus Gene Promoters Exhibit an Unprecedented Conservation among all Eukaryotes
Karsten Suhre, Stéphane Audic, Jean-Michel Claverie
The initial analysis of the recently sequenced genome of Acanthamoeba polyphaga Mimivirus, the largest known double-stranded DNA virus, predicted a proteome of size and complexity…
