Infectious RNA are either viruses or viroids. In our newest preprint we show there are also hybrid infectious agents: viroid-like elements which encode their own stolen copy of the RNA virus hallmark-gene, RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase (RdRp).

A new version of the proteinDB has been released on @MGnifyDB. More than double in size, it now has over 2.4 billion non-redundant sequences comprising 623 million clusters. Internal improvements mean that the DB now includes crucial links between the sequences and their metadata
