Multiple origins of prokaryotic and eukaryotic single-stranded DNA viruses from bacterial and archaeal plasmids

Most single-stranded DNA viruses have small genomes replicated by rolling circle mechanism which is initiated by the Rep protein. Here, using sequence similarity network and phylogenetic analyses, Kazlauskas et al. show that viral Reps evolved from Reps of bacterial and archaeal plasmids on multiple...
