  2. Virophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virophage

    (A) When the host cell is only infected by a giant virus, the latter establishes a cytoplasmic virus factory to replicate and generates new virions, and the host cell is most likely lysed at the end of its replication cycle. (B) When the host cell is co-infected with a giant virus and its virophage, the latter parasitizes the giant virus factory.

  3. Sputnik virophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sputnik_virophage

    Sputnik was first isolated in 2008 from a sample obtained from humans; it was harvested from the contact lens fluid of an individual with keratitis. [4] Naturally however, the Sputnik virophage has been found to multiply inside species of the opportunistically pathogenic protozoan Acanthamoeba, but only if that amoeba is infected with the large mamavirus.

  4. Phaeocystis globosa virus virophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phaeocystis_Globosa_Virus...

    Phaeocystis globosa virus virophage, or PgVV, or Preplasmiviricota sp. Gezel-14T, [1] is a polinton-like virus, which are small DNA viruses that are found integrated in protist genomes. Similar to virophages , PgVV requires a helper virus to replicate .

  5. Human betaherpesvirus 7 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_betaherpesvirus_7

    No HHV-7 infection-specific treatment exists. [9] While HHV-7 may not be linked to any specific diseases, some researchers emphasize that the virus is still clinically relevant as it causes significant complications in immunocompromised patients. Specific treatment options for HHV-6, 7, and 8 are currently in the early stages of development.

  6. Virotherapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virotherapy

    Virotherapy is a treatment using biotechnology to convert viruses into therapeutic agents by reprogramming viruses to treat diseases. There are three main branches of virotherapy: anti-cancer oncolytic viruses, viral vectors for gene therapy and viral immunotherapy.

  8. Zamilon virophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zamilon_virophage

    Zamilon was discovered in 2013, in Acanthamoeba polyphaga amoebae co-infected with the giant virus Mont1, isolated from a Tunisian soil sample. [2] [3] [5] As of 2015, Zamilon is one of three virophages to have been isolated physically, the others being Sputnik and Mavirus; several other virophage DNAs have been discovered using metagenomics but have not been characterised physically.

  9. Genetically modified virus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_virus

    A genetically modified virus is a virus that has been altered or generated using biotechnology methods, and remains capable of infection. Genetic modification involves the directed insertion , deletion , artificial synthesis or change of nucleotide bases in viral genomes.
