  • The last universal cellular ancestor (LUCA) is the most recent population of organisms from which all cellular life on Earth descends. In this Perspective article, Krupovic, Dolja and Koonin analyse the extant distribution of viruses across the two primary domains of life to infer the LUCA virome.

  • The origin of viruses is an unsolved, controversial question. In this Opinion article, Krupovic, Dolja and Koonin propose a new scenario for the origin of viruses based on primordial, selfish replicators acquiring structural proteins from cells, enabling them to form virions.

  • Metagenomic analysis of a single RNA virome from the Yangshan Deep-Water Harbour in China enabled the recovery of more than 4,500 distinct RNA viruses, doubling the known set of RNA viruses to date, and provided insights into their biology.

  • The vast resource of viral genome sequences has been exploited to carry out a genomic comparison and phylogenetic analysis of the picorna-like superfamily. The authors conclude that the diverse groups of picorna-like viruses probably evolved in a 'Big Bang' that came after the evolution of the main groups of eukaryotes.

  • The authors argue that the virome of the last eukaryotic common ancestor is bacterial, rather than archaeal, providing support for a syntrophic model of eukaryogenesis with two endosymbiosis events.
