Taxonomic colouring of phylogenetic trees of protein sequences

BMC Bioinformatics, 2006
Background Phylogenetic analyses of protein families are used to define the evolutionary relationships between homologous proteins. The interpretation of protein-sequence phylogenetic trees requires the examination of the taxonomic properties of the ...

Comparison of Pre‐ and Postoperative Gut Microbiota Diversity in Patients With Rectal Cancer Undergoing Stoma Creation and Closure

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We investigated the impact of temporary stoma creation and closure on gut microbiota diversity in rectal cancer patients. 16S rRNA sequencing revealed that microbial diversity significantly decreased postoperatively in the stoma group but remained stable in non‐stoma patients.

Using Plant DNA Barcodes and Functional Traits to Assess Community Assembly of Quercus Forests at Different Scales in the Semiarid Loess Plateau of China

Ecology and Evolution
Trait and evolutionary differences among coexisting species are increasingly used to comprehend the processes shaping communities. However, they do not consistently yield congruent insights due to methodological limitations and scale dependence ...

Polymerase Chain Reaction. Perturbation Theory and Machine Learning Artificial Intelligence‐Experimental Microbiome Analysis: Applications to Ancient DNA and Tree Soil Metagenomics Cases of Study

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Perturbation Theory and Machine Learning framework integrates perturbation theory and machine learning to classify genetic sequences, distinguishing ancient DNA from modern controls and predicting tree health from soil metagenomic data.

Unexpected Dual Function of Plant YUCCA Enzymes Links Chlorophyll Catabolism to Auxin Homeostasis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
YUCCA enzymes are well known to catalyze the main step of auxin biosynthesis in plants. Here, a hitherto undescribed dual function was discovered, revealing that some YUCCAs also act in chlorophyll degradation. In vitro feedback regulation furthermore suggests a link between chlorophyll degradation and hormone homeostasis and a physiological role of ...

Dimorphic enantiostyly and its function for pollination by carpenter bees in a pollen‐rewarding Caribbean bloodwort

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

PCA‐Based Database Mining Enables the Discovery of Bacterial Carbene Transferases for Stereodivergent Cyclopropanation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Database mining using principal component analysis (PCA)‐based clustering enabled discovery of bacterial enzymes capable of catalyzing stereodivergent cyclopropanation of styrene. Statistical analyses of sequence data further revealed characteristic structural properties of these enzymes, highlighting the potential of the bioinformatics tools for ...
