General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution phylogenetic analysis indicates that ATCV-1 has probably acquired its UGD gene via a recent horizontal gene transfer from a green algal host, while an earlier event involving the complete pathway probably occurred between a protozoan ancestor and mimivirus. Chloroviruses, and maybe mimivirus, may encode most, if not all, of the glycosylation machinery involved in the synthesis of specific glycan structures essential for virus replication and infection Acanthamoeba polyphaga Mimivirus
