Dominique Colinet et al.
Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) involved in the degradation of plant cell walls and/or the assimilation of plant carbohydrates for energy uptake are widely distributed in microorganisms. In contrast, they are less frequent in animals,...
Tandem repeats provide evidence for convergent evolution to similar protein structures [0.03%]
串联重复序列提供了蛋白质结构趋同进化的证据

Homology is a key concept underpinning the comparison of sequences across organisms. Sequence-level homology is based on a statistical framework optimized over decades of work. Recently, computational protein structure prediction has enable...
Convergent evolution and predictability of gene copy numbers associated with diets in mammals [0.03%]
与饮食相关哺乳动物基因拷贝数的趋同进化及预测性

Kayla Wilhoit et al.
Convergent evolution, the evolution of the same or similar phenotypes in phylogenetically independent lineages, is a widespread phenomenon in nature. If the genetic basis for convergent evolution is predictable to some extent, it may be pos...
ZW sex chromosome differentiation in paleognathous birds is associated with mitochondrial effective population size but not mitochondrial genome size or mutation rate [0.03%]
古鸟纲鸟类ZW性染色体分化与线粒体有效种群大小而非线粒体基因组大小或突变率有关
Brooke Weinstein,Zongji Wang,Qi Zhou et al.
Brooke Weinstein et al.
Eukaryotic genome size varies considerably, even among closely related species. The causes of this variation are unclear, but weak selection against supposedly costly "extra" genomic sequences has been central to the debate for over 50 year...
Protein quality control is a master modulator of molecular evolution in bacteria [0.03%]
蛋白质质量控制是调控细菌分子进化的关键因素
Carolina Diaz Arenas,Maristella Alvarez,Robert H Wilson et al.
Carolina Diaz Arenas et al.
The bacterial protein quality control (PQC) network comprises a set of genes that promote proteostasis (proteome homeostasis) through proper protein folding and function via chaperones, proteases, and a protein translational machinery. It p...
Evolutionary Genomics of Two Co-occurring Congeneric Fore Reef Coral Species on Guam (Mariana Islands) [0.03%]
关岛(马里亚纳群岛)两种共存的珊瑚物种的基因组进化

Héctor Torrado et al.
Population structure provides essential information for developing meaningful conservation plans. This is especially important in remote places, such as oceanic islands, where limited population sizes and genetic isolation can make populati...
The chromosome-level genome of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi A. Agassiz, 1865 reveals a unique immune gene repertoire [0.03%]
全基因组水平的栉水母粘唾液纲模式动物Mnemiopsis leidyi A. Agassiz免疫相关基因图谱研究

Vasiliki Koutsouveli et al.
Ctenophora are basal marine metazoans, the sister group of all other animals. Mnemiopsis leidyi is one of the most successful invasive species worldwide with intense ecological and evolutionary research interest. Here, we generated a chromo...
Phylogenetic signal in primate tooth enamel proteins and its relevance for paleoproteomics [0.03%]
灵长类牙齿釉质蛋白的谱系信号及其对古蛋白质组学的意义
Ricardo Fong-Zazueta,Johanna Krueger,David M Alba et al.
Ricardo Fong-Zazueta et al.
Ancient tooth enamel, and to some extent dentin and bone, contain characteristic peptides that persist for long periods of time. In particular, peptides from the enamel proteome (enamelome) have been used to reconstruct the phylogenetic rel...

Rowena Hill et al.
Somion occarium is a wood-decaying bracket fungus belonging to an order known to be rich in useful chemical compounds. Despite its widespread distribution, S. occarium has been assessed as endangered on at least one national Red List, presu...
Horizontal transfer and recombination fuel Ty4 retrotransposon evolution in Saccharomyces [0.03%]
水平转导和重组推动了酵母菌种Ty4逆向转座子的进化
