View full threadThe genomes encoded phosphoesterase, which could be involved in membrane destabilisation. These #holin #endolysins systems need further investigations of course (culturing/transcriptomics), since mixed membranes of their Poseidoniales host that likely contain bacterial/eukaryotic G3P backbones.
- Hope you had a fun read! This work was built on the previously characterised #Brisbane #River #Estuary, which is given here too : academic.oup.com/ismecommun/a...
- These Poseidoniales viruses encoded a unique functional repertoire of genes. Aside from virion morphogenesis, and genome packaging and replication, and AMGs such as #biotin synthesis, #cobalamin productio and metallophosphoesterase, amidoligase, glutamine amidotransferase (GATase) among others.
- The novel Poseidoniales virus, Adrikavirales become more interesting. This genome encoded which could be novel archeal-like #holins. Additionally, LytA-like (N-acetyl muramoyl L-alanine amidase) #endolysin was found adjacent to these holins, possibly aiding in viral #egress (see Fig 7).
- In this paper we explore the #viruses, particularly #metagenomic #archaeal #viruses of the #Brisbane #River #Estuary. Interestingly, viruses associated with archaeal host #Poseidoniales (which are grouped into magrovirusclade A-E and X), of which the name for clade B has been recently proposed.
- In our study, we uncovered and proposed new names for clade A and E, for which we had complete viral genomes. Two magrovirus families Apasviridae (group A) Krittikaviridae (group E) ….and a novel virus order Adrikavirales, which were also associated with #archaeal host order #Poseidoniales.
