The evolutionary biology of poxviruses [PDF]

open access: yesInfection, Genetics and Evolution, 2010
The poxviruses (family Poxviridae) are a family of double-stranded viruses including several species that infect humans and their domestic animals, most notably Variola virus (VARV), the causative agent of smallpox. The evolutionary biology of these viruses poses numerous questions, for which we have only partial answers at present.

Comparative analysis of morabine grasshopper genomes reveals highly abundant transposable elements and rapidly proliferating satellite DNA repeats

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2020
Background Repetitive DNA sequences, including transposable elements (TEs) and tandemly repeated satellite DNA (satDNAs), collectively called the “repeatome”, are found in high proportion in organisms across the Tree of Life.

Neofunctionalization of ciliary BBS proteins to nuclear roles is likely a frequent innovation across eukaryotes

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: The eukaryotic BBSome is a transport complex within cilia and assembled by chaperonin-like BBS proteins. Recent work indicates nuclear functions for BBS proteins in mammals, but it is unclear how common these are in extant proteins or when they ...

The Extended (Evolutionary) Synthesis Debate: Where Science Meets Philosophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recent debates between proponents of the modern evolutionary synthesis (the standard model in evolutionary biology) and those of a possible extended synthesis are a good example of the fascinating tangle among empirical, theoretical, and conceptual or ...

Common and unique strategies of myoglobin evolution for deep-sea adaptation of diving mammals

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Myoglobin (Mb) is highly concentrated in the myocytes of diving mammals such as whales and seals, in comparison with land animals, and its molecular evolution has played a crucial role in their deep-sea adaptation.
