Comparative Analysis Reveals the Adaptive Evolution of Olfactory System in the Swamp Eel (Monopterus albus) Based on the Chromosome‐Level Genome

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A total of 629 gene families were identified to expand in the swamp eel, with five (OLFR, GNAL, PRKG1, NCALD, and PDE1) distributed in olfactory transduction (KEGG map04740). A total of 318 OR genes (289 functional genes, 10 partial genes, and 19 pseudogenes) were annotated in the swamp eel genome, significantly surpassing other fish species.

Large Extent of Convergent Evolution Towards the Double Histone Fold Revealed by Targeted Sequence and Structure Search Approach

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 4, Page 875-882, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Histone proteins are key players in chromatin packaging. In eukaryotes, nucleosomal cores—the DNA packaging fundamental units—are formed by composition of histone dimers. The double histone fold is a protein structure where two consecutive regions, each featuring histone fold, come together to create a histone pseudodimer. Although regarded as

Genome‐wide identification and solute selectivity of aquaporins in the sharpnose sevengill shark, Heptranchias perlo

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, April 2026.
Abstract The aquaporin genes (aqps) are widely distributed among vertebrates. In cartilaginous fish, aqp3 and aqp10 are duplicated, whereas many species have lost aqp8. While the solute permeability of aquaglyceroporins and Aqp8 exhibits significant diversity, systematic evaluations of their activity within species are limited.

A trans-species missense SNP in Amhr2 is associated with sex determination in the tiger pufferfish, Takifugu rubripes (fugu). [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2012
Heterogametic sex chromosomes have evolved independently in various lineages of vertebrates. Such sex chromosome pairs often contain nonrecombining regions, with one of the chromosomes harboring a master sex-determining (SD) gene. It is hypothesized that
