Functional and evolutionary analysis of viral proteins containing a Rossmannā€like fold 2018-06-13 .txt text/plain 7468 465 49 10 However, structural analyses of virion architecture and coat protein topology have revealed unexpected similarities, not visible in sequence comparisons, suggesting a common origin for viruses that infect hosts residing in different domains of life. In this current work, we provide functional and evolutionary analysis of viral proteins containing a Rossmann-like fold that can be found in the Evolutionary Classification of protein Domains (ECOD) database developed in our lab. The structures represented gene products from 21 viral taxonomical families with host ranges from all kingdoms of life (http://prodata.swmed.edu/rossmann_fold/viruses/). Our analysis detected 14 different bacterial virus structure topology types defined by ECOD T-groups that contain a Rossmann-like fold (Fig. 2, 12 topology groups shown). Like the bacterial and eukaryotic branches in the tree of life, the Archea are host to a multitude of Functional and Evolutionary Analysis of Viral Proteins viruses. 61 Among viral protein structures containing the minimal Rossmann fold, 14 protein families are known helicases (http://prodata.swmed.edu/ross-mann_fold/viruses/). ./cache/cord-280429-4fota9rl.txt ./txt/cord-280429-4fota9rl.txt
