Taxobox color violet image image width image caption name Ligamenvirales virus group i ordo Ligamenvirales subdivision ranks Family subdivision Lipothrixviridae br Rudiviridae br Ligamenvirales is a proposed order of viruses that infect archaea of the kingdom Crenarchaeota and have double stranded DNA genomes ref cite journal title A new proposed taxon for double stranded DNA viruses, the order Ligamenvirales journal Arch Virol year 2012 volume 157 issue 4 pages 791 795 doi 10.1007 s00705 012 1229 7 pmid 22270758 author Prangishvili D, Krupovic M ref . The name is derived from the Latin ligamen , meaning string or thread . Taxonomy There are two families in this order Lipothrixviridae and Rudiviridae . The virons are filamentous with a helical nucleocapsid. Both ends of the virons are plugged with a proteinous material. At either end are attached either tail fibers or more complex structures involved in host adhesion. The major coat proteins of both lipothrixviruses and rudiviruses have an unusual four helix bundle topology. ref name Goulet2009 Goulet A, Blangy S, Redder P, Prangishvili D, Felisberto Rodrigues C, Forterre P, Campanacci V, Cambillau C 2009 Acidianus filamentous virus 1 coat proteins display a helical fold spanning the filamentous archaeal viruses lineage. PNAS 106 50 21155 21160 ref Both families also share an unusual gylcosyltransferase . Up to nine genes are common to these families. The genome is non segmented linear double stranded DNA.
