词条 | Transpoviron |
释义 |
A transpoviron is a mobile genetic element found in the genomes of giant DNA viruses.[1][2] They are linear DNA elements of approximately 7 kilobases that encompass six to eight protein encoding genes. Two of these genes are homologous to virophage genes. Transpovirons encode a superfamily 1 helicase, which encompasses an inactivated family B DNA polymerase domain.[3] Homologs of this unique polymerase-helicase fusion protein are widespread in Polinton-Like Viruses (PLV)[4]. Based on the phylogenetic analysis of the helicase domain it has been concluded that transpovirons have evolved from PLV via the loss of several genes including those encoding the morphogenetic module proteins.[3] References1. ^{{cite journal | last1 = Desnues | first1 = C | last2 = La Scola | first2 = B | last3 = Yutin | first3 = N | last4 = Fournous | first4 = G | last5 = Robert | first5 = C | last6 = Azza | first6 = S | last7 = Jardot | first7 = P | last8 = Monteil | first8 = S | last9 = Campocasso | first9 = A | last10 = Koonin | first10 = EV | last11 = Raoult | first11 = D | year = 2012 | title = Provirophages and transpovirons as the diverse mobilome of giant viruses | url = | journal = Proc Natl Acad Sci USA | volume = 109 | issue = 44| pages = 18078–83 | doi = 10.1073/pnas.1208835109 | pmc = 3497776 }} 2. ^{{cite journal | last1 = Yutin | first1 = N | last2 = Raoult | first2 = D | last3 = Koonin | first3 = EV | year = 2013 | title = Virophages, polintons, and transpovirons: a complex evolutionary network of diverse selfish genetic elements with different reproduction strategies | url = | journal = Virol J | volume = 10 | issue = 1| page = 158 | doi=10.1186/1743-422x-10-158}} 3. ^1 {{cite journal|author1=Mart Krupovic, Natalya Yutin, Eugene V.
