Type Species

Gammalipothrixvirus is a genus of viruses in the order Ligamenvirales, in the family Lipothrixviridae. Archaea acidianus serve as natural hosts. There are currently only one species in this genus: the type species Acidianus filamentous virus 1. [1][2]

Taxonomy

Group: dsDNA

[2]

Structure

Viruses in Gammalipothrixvirus are enveloped, with rod-shaped geometries. The diameter is around 24 nm, with a length of 900 nm. Genomes are linear, around 20kb in length. The genome codes for 40 proteins. [1]

Gammalipothrixvirus Rod-shaped Enveloped Linear Monopartite

Life Cycle

Viral replication is cytoplasmic. Entry into the host cell is achieved by adsorption into the host cell. Dna templated transcription is the method of transcription. Archaea acidianus serve as the natural host. Transmission routes are passive diffusion.
