Origin of Viruses

Investigating the Concept and Origin of Viruses
Origins of Viruses: Which Hypothesis Is Biologically Plausible? ... These genes are rarely discussed in the models of virus origin and evolution, and instead most evolutionary studies rely on a very small subset of viral genes for which we can find reliable cellular homologs. Often such homologies are interpreted as gene uptake from cells by ...
Origin of viruses: primordial replicators recruiting capsids ...
The origin of viruses is an unsolved, controversial question. ... According to the 'primordial virus world' or 'virus early' hypothesis, viruses are direct descendants of the first ...
Introduction to virus origins and their role in biological evolution
The theory of a cellular origin of viruses was already put forward in the twentieth century when it was evidenced that complex DNA viruses encoded enzymes and immunomodulatory proteins that had cellular counterparts. The virus-generating cells could be autonomously functional from the onset (as autonomous as individual cells can be) or belong ...
The origin and evolution of viruses inferred from fold ...
The reduction hypothesis suggests that the origin of cells preceded that of viruses, with DNA viruses evolving via reduction in their genomes. The escape hypothesis deems viruses as selfish genetic elements that escaped control of cellular machinery and 'pickpocketed' genes via HGT. (B) Hybrid models of viral evolution support statements ...
The origin of viruses and their possible roles in major evolutionary
The virus-first hypothesisThe virus-first hypothesis has been revived in the last decade by Wolfram Zillig who suggested that viruses originated in the prebiotic word, using the primitive soup as a host (Prangishvili et al., 2001). Such hypothesis is in line with the view, advocated by several molecular biologists, that the formation of cells ...
Ancient or New
The origin of viruses is ancient and the details are uncertain. Viruses may have preceded cellular life, may have arisen in parallel with cells, or maybe evolved from early cellular life forms. This chapter will explore the various hypotheses for viral origins and the evidence for and against each hypothesis.

A phylogenomic data-driven exploration of viral origins and evolution
The origin of viruses remains mysterious because of their diverse and patchy molecular and functional makeup. Although numerous hypotheses have attempted to explain viral origins, none is backed by substantive data. We take full advantage of the wealth of available protein structural and functional data to explore the evolution of the proteomic ...
5.3: History of Viruses
Devolution or regressive hypothesis. This hypothesis proposes to explain the origin of viruses by suggesting that viruses evolved from free-living cells. However, many components of how this process might have occurred are a mystery. Escapist or progressive hypothesis. This hypothesis accounts for viruses having either an RNA or a DNA genome ...
21.1B: Evolution of Viruses
While most findings agree that viruses don't have a single common ancestor, scholars have yet to find one hypothesis about virus origins that is fully accepted in the field. One possible hypothesis, called devolution or the regressive hypothesis, proposes to explain the origin of viruses by suggesting that viruses evolved from free-living cells.
5.1.2: Viral Evolution, Morphology, and Classification
Most scholars agree that viruses don't have a single common ancestor, nor is there a single reasonable hypothesis about virus origins. There are current evolutionary scenarios that may explain the origin of viruses. One such hypothesis, the "devolution" or the regressive hypothesis, suggests that viruses evolved from free-living cells, or ...
Origins of Viruses: Hypotheses and Theories
The Three Classical Hypotheses on the Origins of Viruses. 1. Virus-First Hypothesis. One of the hypotheses on the origins of viruses is the virus-first hypothesis, which asserts that they arose from complex molecules of proteins and nucleic acids before cells appeared on earth. Essentially, it argues that viruses predated primitive forms of ...

Viral evolution
Virus-first hypothesis: Viruses evolved from complex molecules of protein and nucleic acid before cells first appeared on earth. ... Based on the analyses of the evolution of the replicative and structural modules of viruses, a chimeric scenario for the origin of viruses was proposed in 2019. According to this hypothesis, the replication ...
PDF The Origin and Evolution of Viruses as Molecular Organisms
However, in the context of the concept of viruses as molecular organisms and that of the fusion model for the origin of AVs, the evidence for the origin of viruses from parasitic cellular species ...
The Origin of Virions and Virocells: The Escape Hypothesis Revisited
Three types of hypotheses have been proposed to explain the origin of viruses: the " virus first " hypothesis in which viruses originated before cells, the " regression hypothesis ", in which cells or proto-cells evolved into virions by regressive evolution and the " escape hypothesis ", in which fragments of cellular genomes ...
The origin of viruses
The origin of replicons is a general problem, which encompasses both the origin of viruses and those of cells. The most specific aspect of the origin of viruses is therefore the problem of the origin of virions. ... Three RNA cells for ribosomal lineages and three DNA viruses to replicate their genomes: a hypothesis for the origin of cellular ...

The escape hypothesis deems viruses as selfish genetic elements that escaped control of cellular machinery and 'pickpocketed' genes via HGT. (B) Hybrid models of viral evolution support statements ...
Investigating the Concept and Origin of Viruses
Despite their abundance, virus-specific genes are rarely discussed in the models of virus origin and evolution. The alignment-based methods are ill-suited for the origins of life research, especially when the objective is to place fast-evolving organisms or viruses in the tree of life. ...

7 out of 10 American voters think COVID-19 came from a lab
When asked what theory they support, 69% of American voters said SARS-CoV-2 came from a lab, while only 31% said it emerged naturally, according to the latest Deseret News/HarrisX poll. "The lab leak theory is the most widely believed origin story for the pandemic among voters across the political spectrum and most demographics," said ...
A Random Influx of DNA from a Virus Helped Vertebrates Become So
Retroviruses such as the HIV virus carry out this genetic hacking by reversing the sequence of the gene readout. They inject their RNA into the cells they infect, which serves as the code to make ...
Hypothesis on the Origin of Viruses from Transposons
Abstract In this review, the role of transposons in the origin of viruses, losing the traits of their evolutionary precursors due to their high mutability, is considered. However, there are a number of common properties of viruses and transposons suggesting their phylogenetic relationship, including the ability to integrate into the host genome, specific activation in certain tissues, high ...
Viral evolution
Prevalent Views About the Origin of Viruses and Their Evolutionary Roles. Three general theories have been proposed to explain the origin of viruses 4 (Fig. 1).The "virus-first" hypothesis states that viruses predated cells and contributed to the rise of cellular life. 2, 3 A significant proportion of all the viral genomes encode for genetic sequences that lack clear cellular homologs.
Op-ed: The correct theory for the origin of COVID-19 remains uncertain
This postulates that the virus originated in bats, then spread to an intermediary mammal and then leaped to infect humans. The main support for this theory is that the first cases of COVID-19 were ...
COVID-19: How the search for the pandemic's origins turned poisonous
Liang, the Chinese health official in charge of two earlier WHO visits, continued to promote the questionable theory that the virus was shipped into China on frozen food. He suppressed information suggesting it could have come from animals at the Wuhan market, organizing market workers to tell WHO experts no live wildlife was sold and cutting ...
