Phylogenetic trees of conserved virophage proteins. A, maturation protease. B, packaging ATPase. Branches with bootstrap support (expected-likelihood weights) less than 0.5 were collapsed. Sequences marked with an asterisks (*) were taken from Repbase [20]. For other sequences, the species name abbreviation and the GenBank identification numbers are indicated; env stands for “marine metagenome.” Species abbreviations: Acaca, Acanthamoeba castellanii mamavirus; Acapo, Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus; Afrsw, African swine fever virus; Amsmo, Amsacta moorei entomopoxvirus 'L'; Caebr, Caenorhabditis brenneri; Caere, Caenorhabditis remanei; Crovi, Crocodilepox virus; Dicfa, Dictyostelium fasciculatum; Fowvi, Fowlpox virus isolate HP-438/Munich; Megch, Megavirus chiliensis; Melsa, Melanoplus sanguinipes entomopoxvirus; MouMo, Moumouvirus Monve; Orfvi, Orf virus; Popla, Polysphondylium pallidum PN500; Tanvi, Tanapox virus; uncvi, uncultured virus; Vacvi, Vaccinia virus Tian Tan. Taxa abbreviations: Ea, Amoebozoa; El, Opisthokonta; n2, mimiviruses; u1, Chordopoxvirinae; u2, Entomopoxvirinae. Color code: Red, virophages; blue, (predicted) polintons and related elements; light brown, NCLDV; gray, unassigned environmental sequences.
