title: Transpoviron
text: A transpoviron is a plasmid-like genetic element found in the genomes of giant DNA viruses. They are linear DNA elements of approximately 7 kilobases that encompass six to eight protein encoding genes. Two of these genes are homologous to virophage genes. Transpovirons encode a superfamily 1 helicase, which encompasses an inactivated family B DNA polymerase domain. Homologs of this unique polymerase-helicase fusion protein are widespread in Polinton-Like Viruses (PLV). Based on the phylogenetic
