Human Genomics, 2022 Intermediate filament (IntFil) genes arose during early metazoan evolution, to provide mechanical support for plasma membranes contacting/interacting with other cells and the extracellular matrix. Keratin genes comprise the largest subset of IntFil genes.

The POU-er of gene nomenclature [PDF]
Development, 2014 The pluripotency factor POU5F1 (OCT4) is well known as a key regulator of stem cell fate. Homologues of POU5F1 exist throughout vertebrates, but the evolutionary and functional relationships between the various family members have been unclear. The level to which function has been conserved within this family provides insight into the evolution of ...

A new and unified nomenclature for male fertility restorer (RF) proteins in higher plants. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The male fertility restorer (RF) proteins belong to extended protein families associated with the cytoplasmic male sterility in higher plants. Up till now, there is no devised nomenclature for naming the RF proteins.

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2008 Since the plasmid-borne quinolone resistance gene qnr was reported in 1998 (8), many additional qnr alleles have been discovered on plasmids or the bacterial chromosome (reviewed in references 9 and 13). The plasmid-borne qnr genes currently comprise three families, qnrA, qnrB, and qnrS, differing from each other 40% or more in nucleotide sequence ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2013 T and B cell repertoires are collections of lymphocytes, each characterised by its antigen-specific receptor. We review here classical technologies and analysis strategies developed to assess Immunoglobulin (IG) and T cell receptor (TR) repertoire ...

Gene nomenclature by default, or BLASTing to Babel
Human Genomics, 2005 The current proliferation of mammalian genomes is creating a nomenclature issue caused by naming genes based on their best BLAST hit to a gene in another annotated genome.

The chicken gene nomenclature committee report [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2009 Comparative genomics is an essential component of the post-genomic era. The chicken genome is the first avian genome to be sequenced and it will serve as a model for other avian species. Moreover, due to its unique evolutionary niche, the chicken genome can be used to understand evolution of functional elements and gene regulation in mammalian species.

The NLR Gene Family: A Standard Nomenclature [PDF]
Immunity, 2008 Iimmune regulatory proteins such as CIITA, NAIP, IPAF, NOD1, NOD2, NALP1, cryopyrin/NALP3 are members of a family characterized by the presence of a nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) and leucine-rich repeats (LRR). Members of this gene family encode a protein structure similar to the NB-LRR subgroup of disease-resistance genes in plants and are involved ...
