FYI, the first author of a paper we read several weeks ago is giving a talk in the Biology department about that study today. Here are the details: Thursday, February 25, 2010, General Biology Seminar, 4:00 PM, Norman Davidson Hall, 119 Kerckhoff, Jeffrey Barrick ,Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics

- is following 1 new article in Caltech Ge/Bi 246: Environmental Viruses: Interesting Virus-Related Articles Found by Group MembersBacteriophages encode factors required for protection in a symbiotic mutualism. Oliver KM (2009) Science.Login or register to post commentsThis paper offers a new perspective on viruses, not as agents of disease or destruction, but as a critical part of an inter-domain symbiosis. The significance of the role environmental viruses play in global ecology -- not just the microbial world -- seems potentially large and yet currently under-appreciated. - Anne Dekas (Caltech) January 26, 2010 Comment deletedThis looks like a good article to read for group meeting. - Victoria Orphan (Caltech) February 12, 2010 Comment deleted

- is following 1 new article in Caltech Ge/Bi 246: Environmental Viruses: Interesting Virus-Related Articles Found by Group MembersPhotosystem I gene cassettes are present in marine virus genomes. Sharon Itai (2009) Nature.Login or register to post commentsI mentioned this paper in seminar yesterday in the context of how different the Prochlorococcus host and phage photosystem II genes and proteins are (described by Lindell et al Nature 2005). In this more recent paper (2009), the authors look at photosystem I gene cassettes. By modeling the structures of viral and host proteins, they conclude that the viral form is significantly structurally and potentially functionally different. Calling this "phage gene innovation," the authors suggest that "the oceanic virome could be an almost unlimited source of naturally bioengineered gene cassettes." - Anne Dekas (Caltech) January 26, 2010 Comment deleted
