u-Genome: A Database on Genome Design in Unicellular Genomes

In Silico Biology: Journal of Biological Systems Modeling and Multi-Scale Simulation, 2005
Unicellular eukaryotes were among the first ones to be selected for complete genome sequencing because of the small size of their genomes and their interactions with humans and a broad range of animals and plants. Currently, ten completely sequenced unicellular genome sequences have been publicly released and as the number of available unicellular ...

GENOME TREES AND THE NATURE OF GENOME EVOLUTION [PDF]

Annual Review of Microbiology, 2005
Genome trees are a means to capture the overwhelming amount of phylogenetic information that is present in genomes. Different formalisms have been introduced to reconstruct genome trees on the basis of various aspects of the genome. On the basis of these aspects, we separate genome trees into five classes: (a) alignment-free trees based on statistic ...

A Phylogenomic Supertree of Birds

Diversity, 2019
It has long been appreciated that analyses of genomic data (e.g., whole genome sequencing or sequence capture) have the potential to reveal the tree of life, but it remains challenging to move from sequence data to a clear understanding of evolutionary ...

Multipartite viruses: A decentralized mode of functioning. [O.24] [PDF]

, 2015
Multipartite viruses are characterized by a genome composed of two or more nucleic acid segments, each encapsidated indivually. A classical view in virology assumes that the viral replication cycle occurs within individual cells, where the whole viral ...

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Visualization for genomics: the Microbial Genome Viewer [PDF]

Bioinformatics, 2004
Abstract Summary: A Web-based visualization tool, the Microbial Genome Viewer, is presented that allows the user to combine complex genomic data in a highly interactive way. This Web tool enables the interactive generation of chromosome wheels and linear genome maps from genome annotation data stored in a MySQL database.

Biosynthesis of Akaeolide and Lorneic Acids and Annotation of Type I Polyketide Synthase Gene Clusters in the Genome of Streptomyces sp. NPS554

Marine Drugs, 2015
The incorporation pattern of biosynthetic precursors into two structurally unique polyketides, akaeolide and lorneic acid A, was elucidated by feeding experiments with 13C-labeled precursors.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

The Ectocarpus Genome and Brown Algal Genomics

, 2012
Brown algae are important organisms both because of their key ecological roles in coastal ecosystems and because of the remarkable biological features that they have acquired during their unusual evolutionary history. The recent sequencing of the complete genome of the filamentous brown alga Ectocarpus has provided unprecedented access to the molecular
