Pan-vertebrate comparative genomics unmasks retrovirus macroevolution.
Although extensive research has demonstrated host-retrovirus microevolutionary dynamics, it has been difficult to gain a deeper understanding of the macroevolutionary patterns of host-retrovirus interactions. Here we use recent technological advances to infer broad patterns in retroviral diversity, evolution, and host-virus relationships by using a large-scale phylogenomic approach using endoge...
متن کاملMetaRef: a pan-genomic database for comparative and community microbial genomics
Microbial genome sequencing is one of the longest-standing areas of biological database development, but high-throughput, low-cost technologies have increased its throughput to an unprecedented number of new genomes per year. Several thousand microbial genomes are now available, necessitating new approaches to organizing information on gene function, phylogeny and microbial taxonomy to facilita...
متن کاملComparative Genomics of Microbial Signal Transduction
Transmembrane chemoreceptors in Escherichia coli utilize ligand-binding domains for detecting various external signals. The structure of this domain in the E. coli aspartate receptor, Tar, is known and its signal transduction mechanism is under investigation. Current domain models for this important sensory module are inaccurate and therefore cannot reveal the distribution of this domain within...
متن کاملComparative and Computational Methods for Microbial Genomics
Title of Dissertation: COMPARATIVE AND COMPUTATIONAL METHODS FOR MICROBIAL GENOMICS Derrick Edward Wood, Doctor of Philosophy, 2014 Directed by: Professor Steven L. Salzberg Department of Computer Science Through the study of genomic sequences, researchers are able to learn much about the workings of life. As sequencing technology has improved over the past decade, the number of genomes that ha...
متن کاملComparative genomics and understanding of microbial biology.
The sequences of close to 30 microbial genomes have been completed during the past 5 years, and the sequences of more than 100 genomes should be completed in the next 2 to 4 years. Soon, completed microbial genome sequences will represent a collection of >200,000 predicted coding sequences. While analysis of a single genome provides tremendous biological insights on any given organism, comparat...
