Phylogenetic and Phyletic Studies of Informational Genes in Genomes Highlight Existence of a 4th Domain of Life Including Giant Viruses

TL;DR: A single common origin is reported for Nucleocytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDV), DNA processing genes rooted between Archaea and Eukarya, with a topology congruent with that of the ribosomal tree, and it is hypothesized that the core genome of NCLDVs is as ancient as the three currently accepted domains of life.
