The virophage-polinton evolutionary network. Specific groups of bacteriophages that are involved in the network connections: Tectiviridae (PolB); Caudovirales (tailed bacteriophages: S3H and GIY-YIG); cyanophages (MV19 peptidase). Specific groups of NCLDV that are involved in the network connections: Irido-, Mimi-, Pox-, Marseilleviruses (Mavirus S3H helicase); Marseillevirus (OLV S3H helicase and MV19 peptidase); Phaeocystis globosa virus and Invertebrate iridescent virus 6 (GIY-YIG); Phycodnaviridae (Tlr 6F); Pox- and Asfarviridae (ATPase), and Mimiviridae (MV20 FNIP repeats).
