Abstract
RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase encoding Artifacts in Eukaryotic Transcriptomes
Highlights
The possible viral origin of the spliceosome, which is beginning to be indicated by results like those in [20], and described here, is relevant to two hypotheses: “Virus World” and “Introns Earliest”
The Virus World Hypothesis suggests that the role of viruses could be significantly underestimated by the standard descriptions
Viral eukaryogenesis has been proposed in a variety of forms [6, 39-42], all consistent with the lack of RdRp in prokaryotes/archaea, while RdRp is found in eukaryotes and viruses
Summary
The possible viral origin of the spliceosome The possible viral origin of the spliceosome, which is beginning to be indicated by results like those in [20], and described here, is relevant to two hypotheses: “Virus World” and “Introns Earliest”. The Virus World Hypothesis suggests that the role of viruses could be significantly underestimated by the standard descriptions.
