Genome-scale compositional comparisons in eukaryotes.
We examined dinucleotide relative abundances and their biases in recent sequences of eukaryotic genomes and chromosomes, including human chromosomes 21 and 22, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Arabidopsis thaliana, and Drosophila melanogaster. We found that dinucleotide relative abundances are remarkably constant across human chromosomes and within the DNA of a particular species. The dinucleotide bia...
متن کاملGenome diversity in microbial eukaryotes.
The genomic peculiarities among microbial eukaryotes challenge the conventional wisdom of genome evolution. Currently, many studies and textbooks explore principles of genome evolution from a limited number of eukaryotic lineages, focusing often on only a few representative species of plants, animals and fungi. Increasing emphasis on studies of genomes in microbial eukaryotes has and will conti...
متن کاملGenome and protein evolution in eukaryotes.
The past year has seen the completion of the genome sequence of the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana and the initial sequence reports of the human genome. The availability of completely sequenced eukaryotic genomes from disparate phylogenetic lineages has opened the door to comparative analyses and a better understanding of the evolutionary processes shaping genomes. Complex many-to-many re...
متن کاملModeling gene and genome duplications in eukaryotes.
Recent analysis of complete eukaryotic genome sequences has revealed that gene duplication has been rampant. Moreover, next to a continuous mode of gene duplication, in many eukaryotic organisms the complete genome has been duplicated in their evolutionary past. Such large-scale gene duplication events have been associated with important evolutionary transitions or major leaps in development an...
متن کاملGenome Update: proteome comparisons.
Genomes of the month Four new genomes will be discussed in this month’s Genome Update. The list of organisms given in Table 1 includes an archaeon, two bacteria and an eukaryote. Two genomes will only be mentioned briefly. The protozoan Cryptosporidium hominis causes gastroenteritis and diarrhoea around the world. Like the Cryptosporidium parvum genome (Abrahamsen et al., 2004), that of C. homi...
