a Proteins that have never been found in giant viruses (dereplicated from the GOEV and GVDB databases) were annotated to expand the functional potential of known GVs. b A heatmap of unique functional potential in new GVMAGs. Each row represents a genome and columns are separated by gene ontology (GO) categories. The location of the recovered genome is also shown on the right. c Specific unique genes involved in the photosynthesis pathway are highlighted here and combined with proteins found in previous studies, such as those by Schultz et al.41 and Gaia et al.43.
