1. Jelly roll capsids evolved from single to double beta barrels.  Gamma Sphaerolipoviruses in Archaea/Eubacteria and ( Microviridae –  ssDNA in eubacteria/archaea  ) have single jelly roll  while Tectiviridae have double jelly roles.

2. PolB and Cas1 casposons are related to Polintoviruses and may be responsible for the evolution of the CRISPR CAS adaptive immunity in Archaea and Bacteria

3. PolA and Cas4 transposons may be related to rudiviridae  and ssDNA Innoviruses. Also related to poxviruses, chlorella virus, and african swine fever virus.

4. Cas9 containing transposons may give rise to  another class of viruses.

5. Insertion sequences may  evolve into plasmids and then acquiring envelopes or capsids to become viruses.

6. Pre LUCA cells may have evolved into HK97 and jelly roll capsid based viruses containing PolA, PolB, and PolC dna polymerases (ie. the caudiviralis and microviridae-tectoviridae ) via reductions in their genomes.
