Comparative Phylogenomics of Pathogenic and Nonpathogenic Species. [PDF]
The Ascomycete Onygenales order embraces a diverse group of mammalian pathogens, including the yeast-forming dimorphic fungal pathogens Histoplasma capsulatum, Paracoccidioides spp. and Blastomyces dermatitidis, the dermatophytes Microsporum spp.

p73 and p63 are two recently discovered p53 homologs. Like p53, these proteins can recognize canonical p53 DNA-binding sites and, when overproduced, can activate p53-responsive target genes and induce apoptosis. Unlike p53, these genes undergo complex alternative splicing which, at least in the case of p63, yields proteins with widely divergent ...

Genome-Wide Analysis of AAT Genes and Their Expression Profiling during Fiber Development in Cotton
Amino acid transporters (AATs) are a kind of membrane proteins that mediate the transport of amino acids across cell membranes in higher plants. The AAT proteins are involved in regulating plant cell growth and various developmental processes.

AIP1 is a novel Agenet/Tudor domain protein from Arabidopsis that interacts with regulators of DNA replication, transcription and chromatin remodeling [PDF]
Background: DNA replication and transcription are dynamic processes regulating plant development that are dependent on the chromatin accessibility. Proteins belonging to the Agenet/Tudor domain family are known as histone modification "readers" and ...

Comparative-genomic analysis reveals dynamic NLR gene loss and gain across Apiaceae species
Introduction: Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) genes play a crucial role in green plants’ responding to various pathogens. Genome-scale evolutionary studies of NLR genes are important for discovering and applying functional NLR genes. However,

A probabilistic model for gene content evolution with duplication, loss, and horizontal transfer
We introduce a Markov model for the evolution of a gene family along a phylogeny. The model includes parameters for the rates of horizontal gene transfer, gene duplication, and gene loss, in addition to branch lengths in the phylogeny. The likelihood for

The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene family of Anopheles gambiae [PDF]
Background Members of the M2 family of peptidases, related to mammalian angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), play important roles in regulating a number of physiological processes.

Pigmentation Genes: the Tyrosinase Gene Family and the pmel 17 Gene Family.
We propose that at least two families of genes regulate the melanin biosynthesis. The first is the tyrosinase gene family, which is comprised of tyrosinase (c locus), gp75 (b locus) and DOPAchrome tautomerase (slt locus). The second is the pmel 17 gene family, which is composed of pmel 17 (putative si locus) and chicken melanosomal matrix protein (MMP)
