Evolutionary Interaction Between Archaeal-Eukaryal Cell Lineages and Viruses

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Biocommunication of Archaea

Abstract

Eukarya is thought to have arisen from one of the archaeal lineages between 2500–2000 mya. Recently, various metagenomic data revealed that the diversity of the domain archaea is far more complicated than previously thought, and which archaeal lineage served as the ancestor of the eukaryal lineage is currently under heated debate. Many archaeal viruses have been isolated in the past couple of decades, and have shown us their extensive morphological diversity. On the other hand, so-called “giant viruses” infecting eukaryal cells have been isolated from various aquatic environments since 2003. Molecular phylogenetic analysis revealed that giant viruses and eukarya have evolved with the interaction with each other via horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Interaction between archaeal-eukaryal cell lineages and their viruses may provide clues to explain the origin of eukarya from the archaeal ancestors.
