Structural Studies of Large dsDNA Viruses using Single Particle Methods. Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Science and Technology 1847. 72 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0732-9. Structural studies of large biological assemblies pose a unique problem due to their size, complexity and heterogeneity. Conventional methods like x-ray crystallography, NMR, etc. are limited in their ability to address these issues. To overcome some of these limitations, single particle methods were used. In these methods, each particle image is manipulated individually to find the best possible set of images to reconstruct the 3D structure. The structural studies in this thesis, exploit the advantages of single particle methods. The large data set generated by the SPI study of PR772 provides better statistics about the sample quality due to the use of GDVN, a container-free sample delivery method. By analyzing the diffusion map, we see that the use of GDVNs as a sample delivery method produces wide range of particle sizes owing to the large droplet that are created. The high-resolution structure of bacteriophage PR772 confirmed the speculation about the heteropentameric nature of the penton and revealed the new architecture of the vertex complex consisting of a hetero-pentameric penton formed with three copies of P5 and two copies of P31. The beta propeller region of P2, formed by domains I and II is bound to the N-terminal domain of P5. The structure also reveals new conformations of N-terminal and C-terminal region of P3 which play an important role in particle assembly and structural stability. The study of Melbournevirus revealed the protein composition in a packed particle. The CryoEM structure of Melbournevirus reveals a T=309 capsid with an inner lipid membrane. A dense body was found in the viral particle, a feature not observed in other viruses of the Marseilleviridae family. The density of this body is similar to a nucleic acid-protein complex. This observation, along with the histone-like protein identified during study, suggest genome organization in the viral particle, similar to higher organisms. The soft X-ray microscope operated in the water-window shows the progression of the Cedratvirus lurbo infection in the host cell without the use of chemical fixation, staining, sample dehydration or polymer embedding. The study revealed a significant bioconversion from the host cell to the viral particle at later stages of infection.

Van Etten Department of Plant Pathology, Nebraska Center for Virology, 205 Morrison Hall, University of Nebraska, Lincoln, NE 68583, USA; Email: [email protected]; Tel. +1 402 472 3168. Received: 20 December 2010; in revised form: 13 January 2011 / Accepted: 14 January 2011 / Published: 18 January 2011 Abstract: Viruses with genomes larger than 300 kb and up to 1.2 Mb, which encode hundreds of proteins, are being discovered and characterized with increasing frequency. Most, but not all, of these large viruses (often referred to as giruses) infect protists that live in aqueous environments. Bioinformatic analyses of metagenomes of aqueous samples indicate that large DNA viruses are quite common in nature and await discovery. One issue that is perhaps not appreciated by the virology community is that large viruses, even those classified in the same family, can differ significantly in morphology, lifestyle, and gene complement. This brief commentary, which will mention some of these unique properties, was stimulated by the characterization of the newest member of this club, virus CroV (Fischer, M.G.; Allen, M.J.; Wilson, W.H.; Suttle, C.A. Giant virus with a remarkable complement of genes infects marine zooplankton. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 2010, 107, 19508-19513 [1]). CroV has a 730 kb genome (with ~544 protein-encoding genes) and infects the marine microzooplankton Cafeteria roenbergensis producing a lytic infection. Keywords: giruses; NCLDV; huge viruses 1.

(Service de Bact&riologie,32 Bvd de Za Constitution, Universitk de Lidge, Belgium) The bacterial wall peptidoglycan is an insoluble network composed of: (i) glycan chains of alternating ,8-1,4-linked N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid residues, i.e. a chitin-like structure except that every other sugar is substituted by a 3-0-~-lactylgroup and that the average chain length is small (20 to 140 Hexosamine residues, depending upon the bacterial species). Variations so far encountered include the possible presence of 0-acteyl substituents on C-6 of some of the N-acetylmuramic acid residues (StaphyZococcus aureus; some strains of Lactobacillus acidoghi1u.v (unpublished) and of Micrococcus lysodeikticus), and the replacement of the N-acetylmuramic acid residues by another derivative of muramic acid, possibly N-glycolylmuramic acid (Mycobacterium smegmatis) (ii) tetrapeptide subunits which substitute through their N-termini the D-lactic acid groups of the glycan chains. (iii) peptide bridges which cross-link tetrapeptide subunits of adjacent glycan chains (average size of the peptide moieties: 1-5to 10 cross-linked peptide subunits).

Virus propagation and downstream analysis remains a challenge, particularly in the ocean where the majority of their microbial hosts remain recalcitrant to current culturing techniques. We used a cultivation-independent approach to isolate and sequence individual viruses. The protocol uses high-speed fluorescence-activated virus sorting flow cytometry, multiple displacement amplification (MDA), and downstream genomic sequencing. We focused on ‘giant viruses’ that are readily distinguishable by flow cytometry. From a single- milliliter sample of seawater collected from off the dock at Boothbay Harbor, ME, USA, we sorted almost 700 single virus particles, and subsequently focused on a detailed genome analysis of 12. A wide diversity of viruses was identified that included Iridoviridae, extended Mimiviridae and even a taxonomically novel (unresolved) giant virus.

    The Stability of Lytic Sulfolobus Viruses A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of Master of Sciences in the Department of Biological Sciences of the College of Arts and Sciences 2017 Khaled S. Gazi B.S. Umm Al-Qura University, 2011 Committee Chair: Dennis W. Grogan, Ph.D. i Abstract Among the three domains of cellular life, archaea are the least understood, and functional information about archaeal viruses is very limited. For example, it is not known whether many of the viruses that infect hyperthermophilic archaea retain infectivity for long periods of time under the extreme conditions of geothermal environments. To investigate the capability of viruses to Infect under the extreme conditions of geothermal environments. A number of plaque- forming viruses related to Sulfolobus islandicus rod-shaped viruses (SIRVs), isolated from Yellowstone National Park in a previous study, were evaluated for stability under different stress conditions including high temperature, drying, and extremes of pH. Screening of 34 isolates revealed a 95-fold range of survival with respect to boiling for two hours and 94-fold range with respect to drying for 24 hours. Comparison of 10 viral strains chosen to represent the extremes of this range showed little correlation of stability with respect to different stresses. For example, three viral strains survived boiling but not drying. On the other hand, five strains that survived the drying stress did not survive the boiling temperature, whereas one strain survived both treatments and the last strain showed low survival of both.

Pride: Department of Pathology, University of California, San Diego, CA 92093, USA. [email protected] http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jmb.2014.07.002 Edited by J. L. Sonnenburg Abstract Viruses are dependent biological entities that interact with the genetic material of most cells on the planet, including the trillions within the human microbiome. Their tremendous diversity renders analysis of human viral communities (“viromes”) to be highly complex. Because many of the viruses in humans are bacteriophage, their dynamic interactions with their cellular hosts add greatly to the complexities observed in examining human microbial ecosystems. We are only beginning to be able to study human viral communities on a large scale, mostly as a result of recent and continued advancements in sequencing and bioinformatic technologies. Bacteriophage community diversity in humans not only is inexorably linked to the diversity of their cellular hosts but also is due to their rapid evolution, horizontal gene transfers, and intimate interactions with host nucleic acids. There are vast numbers of observed viral genotypes on many body surfaces studied, including the oral, gastrointestinal, and respiratory tracts, and even in the human bloodstream, which previously was considered a purely sterile environment. The presence of viruses in blood suggests that virome members can traverse mucosal barriers, as indeed these communities are substantially altered when mucosal defenses are weakened.

Medusavirus, a recently isolated NCLDV, has a nucleo−cytoplasmic 22 replication cycle in amoebas during which the host nuclear membrane apparently remains intact, 23 a unique feature among amoeba−infecting giant viruses.
