Tricarboxylic acid cycle and proton gradient in Pandoravirus massiliensis: Is it still a virus?

S. Aherfi, D. BRAHIM BELHAOUARI, L. Pinault, J.-P. Baudoin, P. Decloquement, J. Abrahao, P. Colson, A. LEVASSEUR, D. C. Lamb, E. Chabriere, D. Raoult, B. LA SCOLA

This study identifies functional enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid cycle in Pandoravirus massiliensis, suggesting it may possess energy production capabilities and challenging traditional virus definitions.

Evidence of a cellulosic layer in Pandoravirus tegument and the mystery of the genetic support of its biosynthesis

D. BRAHIM BELHAOUARI, J.-P. BAUDOIN, F. GNANKOU, F. DI PINTO, P. Colson, S. Aherfi, B. LA SCOLA

This study investigates the composition of the Pandoravirus tegument, finding a cellulose-like layer and hypothesizing its synthesis may involve the host amoeba's machinery rather than viral genes.
