The infinitely many genes model with horizontal gene transfer
, 2014 The genome of bacterial species is much more flexible than that of eukaryotes. Moreover, the distributed genome hypothesis for bacteria states that the total number of genes present in a bacterial population is greater than the genome of every single ...

Proficient replication of the yeast genome by a viral DNA polymerase [PDF]
, 2016 DNA replication in eukaryotic cells requires minimally three B-family DNA polymerases: Pol α, Pol δ, and Pol ϵ. Pol δ replicates and matures Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand of the replication fork.

Dispensable genome and segmental duplications drive the genome plasticity in Fusarium solani
Frontiers in Fungal BiologyFusarium solani is a species complex encompassing a large phylogenetic clade with diverse members occupying varied habitats. We recently reported a unique opportunistic F. solani associated with unusual dark galls in sugarbeet.

Integration of circadian and hypoxia signaling via non‐canonical heterodimerization
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.CLOCK, BMAL1, and HIFs are basic helix‐loop‐helix and Per‐Arnt‐Sim domain (bHLH‐PAS) proteins, which function as transcription factors. bHLH‐PAS proteins are designated in two classes. Many class I proteins are regulated by environmental signals via their PAS domains, but such signals have not been identified for all.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa genomic structure and diversity
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011 The Pseudomonas aeruginosa genome (G + C content 65-67%, size 5.5 – 7 Mbp) is made up of a single circular chromosome and a variable number of plasmids. Sequencing of complete genomes or blocks of the accessory genome has revealed that the genome encodes
