In addition, mimiviruses, Mimivirus virophages and marseilleviruses have been isolated from water or soil samples throughout the world [ 6,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41 ] (fig. 2 ). Also, Mimivirus-like particles were observed by light microscopy inside...

... was trying to isolate Legionella -like bacterial pathogens that infect amoebae [ 1,2 ]. Acanthamoeba polyphaga Marseillevirus was isolated in France 5 years later during work to isolate other strains of mimiviruses [ 3 ]. Those two viruses are the founding members of two new viral families. Members...

... genomes. We further describe that the set of tRNAs and amino acyl-tRNA synthetases in mimiviruses is globally not adapted to the codon and amino acid usages of these viruses. Notwithstanding, Leu(TAA)tRNA, present in several Mimivirus genomes and in multiple copies in some viral genomes, may complement...

... PCR assays accurately detected all or most of the members of the currently delineated lineages of giant viruses infecting acanthamoebae as well as the mimivirus virophages, and enabled accurate classification of the mimiviruses of amoebae in lineages A, B or C. We were able to detect four new...

...). The discovery of Mimivirus and other Megavirales, that are microbes, led to divide the microbiological world into four branches. I introduced the name TRUC (Things Resisting Uncompleted Classifications) to accommodate the division in four of the currently known microbiological world. 18 7 2013 ©...

... of Mimivirus has stimulated a lot of discussions on the nature of viruses. There are two major schools of thought, those who defend the escape model, suggesting that giant viruses are giant pickpockets (chimera), and those who emphasize their uniqueness and ancient origin. Comparative genomics of Mimivirus...
