Comparative and Evolutionary Genomics
Motivation: Orthopoxviruses are a large group of closely related viruses displaying a high homology of their genomic nucleotide sequences. These viruses differ also in the severities of the diseases they cause and have different host ranges. Evolutionary relationships of various orthopoxvirus species are yet vague (Marennikova, Shchelkunov, 1998). Results: Analysis of the structures of importan...
متن کاملComparative and Evolutionary Genomics
Motivation: Genomes contain the information for constructing organisms. In some sense, this information is put in by selection, and it is degraded by mutation and genetic drift. It is natural to pose some basic questions of principle. What is the maximum amount of information that can be maintained at mutation-selection equilibrium? Can organisms in principle become arbitrarily complex, or, for...
متن کاملComparative and Evolutionary Genomics
Motivation: An algorithm for comparative analysis of multiple trees reconstructed for representative protein families are discussed. This algorithm is based on the hypotheses of gene loss and horizontal gene transfers and uses stochastic methods and optimization. Some practical results are discussed. We describe a species tree comprising 40 prokaryotic organisms constructed by our algorithm on ...
متن کاملComparative genomics of two Leptospira interrogans serovars reveals novel insights into physiology and pathogenesis.
Leptospira species colonize a significant proportion of rodent populations worldwide and produce life-threatening infections in accidental hosts, including humans. Complete genome sequencing of Leptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni and comparative analysis with the available Leptospira interrogans serovar Lai genome reveal that despite overall genetic similarity there are significant struc...
متن کاملAnnelids in evolutionary developmental biology and comparative genomics.
Annelids have had a long history in comparative embryology and morphology, which has helped to establish them in zoology textbooks as an ideal system to understand the evolution of the typical triploblastic, coelomate, protostome condition. In recent years there has been a relative upsurge in embryological data, particularly with regard to the expression and function of developmental control ge...
