Single-cell-resolved natural giant virus infections reveal conserved protist immunity

The paper identifies active giant-virus infections in protists and shows conserved antiviral defenses and potential viral counter-defense mechanisms.

Viral infection and virophage co-infection induce distinct remodeling of host lipidome

This study investigates how giant virus and virophage co-infection alter the host lipidome, finding distinct lipid remodeling patterns associated with each infection type.
