This project focuses on isolating and characterizing giant viruses from Arctic microalgae, aiming to explore their potential for biotechnological applications. By developing new methods to analyze these viruses, the research seeks to enhance understanding of their ecological roles and contribute to virology and evoluti…
Giant viruses (GVs) comprise a ubiquitous and unique viral group.
Their large genomes encode a majority of proteins with unknown functions, an important but overlooked source for new biotechnological breakthroughs.
Most known GVs have been isolated in hosts from the genus Acanthamoeba and none has yet been found from the Arctic, one of the most important ecosystems in the world.
This came as a surprise considering various metagenomic studies revealed the presence of GVs worldwide, especially in…
