A distinct lineage of Caudovirales that encodes a deeply branching multi-subunit RNA polymerase

Viruses have been difficult to position in the Tree of Life using phylogenetic methods. This study uses an ancient enzyme multi-subunit RNA polymerase (RNAP) to reveal a novel viral group, the Caudovirales, and to suggest an ancient origin of RNAP in this group.
