CRISPR analysis suggests that small circular single-stranded DNA smacoviruses infect Archaea instead of humans

Smacoviruses are found in the intestinal tract of humans and animals but their precise host remains elusive. Here, the authors identify smacovirus-matching CRISPR spacer sequences in the faecal archaeon Candidatus Methanomassiliicoccus intestinalis, implicating Archaea as a potential host.
