Phylogenetic and phyletic studies of informational genes in genomes highlight existence of a 4 domain of life including giant viruses.
The discovery of Mimivirus, with its very large genome content, made it possible to identify genes common to the three domains of life (Eukarya, Bacteria and Archaea) and to generate controversial phylogenomic trees congruent with that of ribosomal genes, branching Mimivirus at its root. Here we use...
