A bacteriophage tubulin harnesses dynamic instability to center DNA in infected cells. [PDF]
, 2014 Dynamic instability, polarity, and spatiotemporal organization are hallmarks of the microtubule cytoskeleton that allow formation of complex structures such as the eukaryotic spindle. No similar structure has been identified in prokaryotes.

SF3b4: A Versatile Player in Eukaryotic Cells
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Spliceosomes are large protein-RNA complexes regulating pre-mRNA processing in eukaryotes. SF3b4 encodes a core subunit of the U2-type spliceosome, loss- or gain-of-function of which often associates with abnormal cell growth, leading to tumorigenesis ...

Functional capacity of Shiga-toxin promoter sequences in eukaryotic cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Shiga toxins (Stx) are the main virulence factors in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) infections, causing diarrhea and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). The genes encoding for Shiga toxin-2 (Stx2) are located in a bacteriophage.
