A new census of protein tandem repeats and their relationship with intrinsic disorder [PDF]
Protein tandem repeats (TRs) are often associated with immunity-related functions and diseases. Since that last census of protein TRs in 1999, the number of curated proteins increased more than seven-fold and new TR prediction methods were published. TRs

Nuclear genome assembly and annotation for the phagotrophic green alga Nephroselmis pyriformis. [PDF]
Abstract Prasinophytes are a globally distributed, diverse polyphyletic group of photosynthetic green algae, displaying a combination of presumably ancestral traits for the Chloroplastida. The Nephroselmidophyceae is a prasinophyte clade comprising small biflagellate algae that includes the marine mixoplankton Nephroselmis pyriformis, which was ...

Structural classification of biotin carboxyl carrier proteins [PDF]
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]
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]
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
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are antioxidant enzymes with ubiquitous expression in human tissues. Prxs are expressed in archaea, bacteria, and eukaryota, often in multiple isoforms.
