Abstract
Archaeal viruses exhibit diverse morphologies whose structures are just beginning to be explored at high-resolution. In this review, we update recent findings on archaeal structural proteins and virion architectures and place them in the biological context in which these viruses replicate. We conclude that many of the unusual structural features and dynamics of archaeal viruses aid their replication and survival in the chemically harsh environments, in which they replicate. Furthermore, we should expect to find more novel features from examining the high-resolution structures of additional archaeal viruses.
