In-depth study of Mollivirus sibericum , a new 30,000-y-old giant virus infecting Acanthamoeba
International audience Acanthamoeba species are infected by the largest known DNA viruses. These include icosahedral Mimiviruses, amphora-shaped Pandoraviruses, and Pithovirus sibericum, the latter one isolated from 30,000-y-old permafrost. Mollivirus sibericum, a fourth type of giant virus, was iso...
