Predicting Viral Hijacking Through Genome-Scale Modeling
Integrating new functions into a genome-scale model enabled researchers to simulate and experimentally validate viral hijacking pathways.
Thawing Permafrost Reveals Unique RNA Virus Community
Microbes that were previously frozen in soils are becoming more active. This study demonstrates the diverse RNA viral communities found in thawed permafrost.
Soils from Six Continents Add Up to Largest Database of Viruses Beneath Our Feet
Scientists plumbed the depths of nearly 3,000 soil samples from around the globe to compile the heftiest atlas of soil viruses ever created.
Moisture Modulates Soil Reservoirs of Active DNA and RNA Viruses
Soil moisture influences both the activity of soil DNA viruses, as well as the composition and abundance of RNA viruses.
‘Auxiliary’ Virus Protein Preps Food for Soil-Dwelling Bacteria
Proteins from “auxiliary” genes in soil viruses play a role in the carbon cycle and climate, scientists have found.
