Globuloviridae

Globuloviridae is a family of hyperthermophilic archaeal viruses. Crenarchaea of the genera Pyrobaculum and Thermoproteus serve as natural hosts. There are four species in this family, assigned to a single genus, Alphaglobulovirus.

Taxonomy
The family contains one genus which contains four species: • AlphaglobulovirusAlphaglobulovirus cinderense, Thermoproteus tenax spherical virus 1 • Alphaglobulovirus obsidianense, Pyrobaculum spherical virus • Alphaglobulovirus pozzuoliense, Pyrobaculum spherical virus 2 • Alphaglobulovirus sileriense, Thermoproteus spherical piliferous virus 1 ==Structure==
Structure
Virions in the Globuloviridae are spherical and enveloped. The diameter is around 100 nm. Genomes are linear dsDNA and non-segmented, around 20–30kb in length. ==Life cycle==
Life cycle
Viral replication is cytoplasmic. DNA-templated transcription is the method of transcription. Pyrobaculum and Thermoproteus archaea serve as the natural host. Transmission routes are passive diffusion. ==References==
