Abundance of intrinsically unstructured proteins in P. falciparum and other apicomplexan parasite proteomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Preliminary sequence analysis of Plasmodium falciparum has shown that the proteome of this organism is enriched in intrinsically unstructured proteins (IUPs), which are either completely disordered or contain large disordered regions.

An Unfolding Story: AlphaFold's View on Protein Flexibility

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, Volume 109, Issue 5, May 2026.
AlphaFold confidence measures allow for detailed proteome‐wide characterization of protein flexibility. All flexibility measures increased substantially in the evolutionary transition from prokaryota to eukaryota. ABSTRACT The AlphaFold confidence measures are related to conformation distribution of the protein.

The genome sequence of the Rose Chafer, Cetonia aurata (Linnaeus, 1758) [version 2; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Cetonia aurata (the Rose Chafer; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Scarabaeidae). The genome sequence is 479.6 megabases in span.

Massive Horizontal Gene Transfer in Bdelloid Rotifers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Horizontal gene transfer in metazoans has been documented in only a few species and is usually associated with endosymbiosis or parasitism. By contrast, in bdelloid rotifers we found many genes that appear to have originated in bacteria, fungi, and ...

The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 5, Page 1092-1103, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

Ancestrality and Mosaicism of Giant Viruses Supporting the Definition of the Fourth TRUC of Microbes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Giant viruses of amoebae were discovered in 2003. Since then, their diversity has greatly expanded. They were suggested to form a fourth branch of life, collectively named ‘TRUC’ (for “Things Resisting Uncompleted Classifications”) alongside Bacteria ...

Microbial Communities in Biocrusts Are Recruited From the Neighboring Sand at Coastal Dunes Along the Baltic Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Biological soil crusts occur worldwide as pioneer communities stabilizing the soil surface. In coastal primary sand dunes, vascular plants cannot sustain due to scarce nutrients and the low-water-holding capacity of the sand sediment.

Beyond Biodiversity: Incorporating Uncertainty Into Metabarcoding Data for Improved Inference of Ecological Relationships

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Metabarcoding sequence data from environmental DNA (eDNA) is rapidly expanding as a powerful method for biodiversity surveys. In order to interpret these data, tools are needed that account for the uncertainty associated with eDNA sampling, sequencing and analysis.

The relationships between the isoelectric point and: length of proteins, taxonomy and ecology of organisms

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2007
Background The distribution of isoelectric point (pI) of proteins in a proteome is universal for all organisms. It is bimodal dividing the proteome into two sets of acidic and basic proteins.

Biowaste Composting as a Sustainable Platform for Bacterial CO Production: Evidence From cooS Gene Expression and Microbial Community Profiling

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study demonstrates, for the first time, the expression of the cooS gene during composting, confirming microbial CO production under mesophilic conditions. The results highlight composting as a novel waste‐to‐biochemicals process, offering a sustainable, low‐carbon pathway for generating carbon monoxide via bacterial CO dehydrogenase activity ...
