Eliciting the Functional Taxonomy from protein annotations and taxa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The advances of omics technologies have triggered the production of an enormous volume of data coming from thousands of species. Meanwhile, joint international efforts like the Gene Ontology (GO) consortium have worked to provide functional information ...

Aquaporin evolution in fishes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2011
Aquaporins represent a primordial group of transmembrane solvent channels that have been documented throughout the living biota. This facet alone emphasizes the positive selection pressure for proteins associated with intracellular fluid homeostasis ...

Structural classification of biotin carboxyl carrier proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We gathered primary and tertiary structures of acyl-CoA carboxylases from public databases, and established that members of their biotin carboxylase (BC) and biotin carboxyl carrier protein (BCCP) domains occur in one family each and that members of ...

Cytoskeletal organization, phylogenetic affinities and systematics in the contentious taxon Excavata (Eukaryota) [PDF]

open access: yesINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SYSTEMATIC AND EVOLUTIONARY MICROBIOLOGY, 2003
An overview of the controversial proposal for the major eukaryote taxon "Excavata" is presented. Excavata is predicted to include at least ten distinct groups: jakobids, Malawimonas, Trimastix, Carpediemonas, retortamonads, diplomonads, Heterolobosea, oxymonads, parabasalids and Euglenozoa.

Early evolution of the Eukaryota [PDF]

open access: yesPalaeontology, 2014
AbstractThe evolution of eukaryotes represents one of the most fundamental transitions in the history of life on Earth; however, there is little consensus as to when or over what timescale it occurred. Review of recent hypotheses and data in a phylogenetic context yields a broadly coherent account.

The Role of Peroxiredoxins in Cancer Development

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are antioxidant enzymes with ubiquitous expression in human tissues. Prxs are expressed in archaea, bacteria, and eukaryota, often in multiple isoforms.

Cystinosin, MPDU1, SWEETs and KDELR belong to a well-defined protein family with putative function of cargo receptors involved in vesicle trafficking. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Classification of proteins into families based on remote homology often helps prediction of their biological function. Here we describe prediction of protein cargo receptors involved in vesicle formation and protein trafficking.

Data Mining of the Coffee Rust Genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The genomes of nine isolates of _Hemileia vastatrix_, the causal agent of coffee leaf rust were sequenced by Illumina and 454. Quality control, cleaning and _de novo_ assemblies of data were performed.

Analysis on evolutionary relationship of amylases from archaea, bacteria and eukaryota [PDF]

open access: yesWorld Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2016
Amylase is one of the earliest characterized enzymes and has many applications in clinical and industrial settings. In biotechnological industries, the amylase activity is enhanced through modifying amylase structure and through cloning and expressing targeted amylases in different species.

Stool microbiome dataset of the critically endangered Puerto Rican parrot (Amazona vittata)

open access: yesData in Brief, 2021
The Puerto Rican parrot (Amazona vittata), endemic to Puerto Rico, is the only native parrot in the United States and is classified as a critically endangered species. There are two captive populations of A.
