Introns interrupt the continuity of many eukaryal genes, and therefore their removal by splicing is a crucial step in gene expression. Interestingly, even within Eukarya there are at least four splicing mechanisms.

Compared to nuclear genomes, mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are small and usually code for only a few dozen genes. Still, identifying genes and their structure can be challenging and time-consuming.

Rapidly evolving protointrons in Saccharomyces genomes revealed by a hungry spliceosome. [PDF]
Introns are a prevalent feature of eukaryotic genomes, yet their origins and contributions to genome function and evolution remain mysterious. In budding yeast, repression of the highly transcribed intron-containing ribosomal protein genes (RPGs ...

Complete mitogenome of the streptophyte green alga Coleochaete scutata (Coleochaetophyceae)
We have sequenced the mitogenome of Coleochaete scutata strain SAG 110.80M. This mitogenome is the largest among the streptophyte green algae examined to date.

Comparative analysis of the complete mitochondrial genomes of four cordyceps fungi
Cordyceps is a large group of entomogenous, medicinally important fungi. In this study, we sequenced, assembled, and annotated the entire mitochondrial genome of Ophiocordyceps xuefengensis, in addition to comparing it against other three complete ...

The conservation of intronic sequences was studied in the mitochondrial solute carrier (SLC25A*) genes of Zebrafish, Chicken, Mouse and Human. These genes are homologous and the coding sequences have been well conserved throughout Vertebrates, but the ...

Population Genomic Analysis Reveals a Highly Conserved Mitochondrial Genome in Fusarium asiaticum
Fusarium asiaticum is one of the pivotal members of the Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC) causing Fusarium head blight (FHB) on wheat, barley and rice in large parts of Asia.

Intronization, de-intronization and intron sliding are rare in Cryptococcus [PDF]
Eukaryotic pre-mRNA gene transcripts are processed by the spliceosome to remove portions of the transcript, called spliceosomal introns. The spliceosome recognizes intron boundaries by the presence of sequence signals (motifs) contained in the actual transcript, thus sequence changes in the genome that affect existing splicing signals or create new ...

Dynamics of genomic innovation in the unicellular ancestry of animals
Which genomic innovations underpinned the origin of multicellular animals is still an open debate. Here, we investigate this question by reconstructing the genome architecture and gene family diversity of ancestral premetazoans, aiming to date the ...
