Virus–virus interactions can profoundly shape viral ecology and evolution, yet they remain poorly understood, particularly in haloarchaea. Upon characterization of a spindle-shaped virus, Tebenquiche spindle-shaped virus 1 (Tebi-SV1), isolated from Halorubrum strain TLS-6, we detected the presence of a second virus, Te...
It is revealed that a globally distributed clade of symbiotic SRB has a conserved core metabolism that diverges from free-living relatives, and these endosymbionts retain key traits of SRB such as sulfate reduction, complete oxidation of acetate to CO2, amino acid degradation for nitrogen acquisition, and transport of...

A wide range of microorganisms produce storage biopolymer polyhydroxyalkanoates (sPHAs) as carbon and energy reserves. However, only bacteria and fungi are known to degrade microbial sPHAs, using enzymes called polyhydroxyalkanoate depolymerases (PHADs). Here we show that some animals also have PHADs that can degrade s...
