Knowing that the crocodilian β-keratin genes are closely related to those of birds, the published genomes of the chicken and zebra finch provide an opportunity not only to compare the genomic organization of their β-keratins, but to study their molecular evolution in archosaurians. Results The...
Sex chromosomes exhibit many unusual patterns in sequence and gene expression relative to autosomes. Birds have evolved a female heterogametic sex system (male ZZ, female ZW), through stepwise suppression of recombination between chrZ and chrW. To addres
Our comprehensive genomic study of animal GH18 family proteins provides valuable new insights into phylogenetic relationships of the proteins and the evolutionary history of the protein family. This represents the first such detailed study of animal GH18 family proteins. The family consists of three ma...
As there is no consensus between the two genomic regions regarding gene flow through the Sahara, it is hard to reach a solid conclusion about its role in the differentiation between the two Mediterranean shores and more data are necessary to reach a definite conclusion. However our data suggest...
Genomic features of Platysternon mtDNA The mtDNAs of vertebrates almost universally contain the same set of 37 genes plus a large, non-coding portion commonly called the "control region" because it contains signals that regulate transcription and replication [23]. Gene rearrangements are not unheard...
Future studies should aim to determine if a native copy of atp1 still exists in these parasites and characterize the genomic location and flanking sequence of putatively transferred sequences. coxI intron invasion and genomic chimerism Although there have been multiple horizontal acquisitions of the ...
Here we examine through models how an infection with PI-Wolbachia in a previously uninfected population leads to a genomic conflict between PI-Wolbachia and the nuclear genome. In most natural populations infected with PI-Wolbachia the infection has gone to fixation and sexual reproduction is ...
Insertion sequences (ISs) are small, mobile DNA entities able to expand in prokaryotic genomes and trigger important rearrangements. To understand their role in evolution, accurate IS taxonomy is essential. The IS4 family is composed of ~70 elements and,
