Using LOPIT-DC-based spatial proteomics, Cadena et al. map the sub-organellar protein landscape of Paulinella chromatophora, a cercozoan with evolutionary-early-stage photosynthetic organelles. They f...

The genomes of Asgard archaea, the closest prokaryotic relatives to eukaryotes, are larger than those of other archaea and contain multiple genes seemingly acquired from bacteria. Here, Manzano-Morales and Gabaldón quantify gene duplication, loss, and transfer events in Asgard genomes, showing that gene duplications, rather than horizontal gene transfers, are the primary drivers behind the increased genome sizes.

This page highlights recent articles on all aspects of bacteriology, mycology, parasitology and virology, covering the biology of pathogens, host-pathogen ...

Phylogenomic reconstruction of the proteome of the last eukaryotic common ancestor sheds light on the origin of eukaryotes, indicating an important role of horizontal transfer of genes from diverse ba...

The updated OrthoFinder v3 software boosts accuracy and scalability in phylogenetic orthology inference with massive and diverse datasets.

The genomes of organisms across the tree of life are structurally and functionally organized into chromatin. In eukaryotes, within an organelle called the nucleus, chromatin is shaped by histones and ...

AbstractSummary. Phylogenetic trees are ubiquitous and central to biology, but most published trees are available only as visual diagrams and not in the ma

Comparative genomics of 86 eukaryotic species reveals a shared genetic toolkit enriched in metabolic functions among osmotrophs that was shaped by early horizontal gene transfer and more recent transf...

Asgard archaea have emerged as key organisms to understand eukaryogenesis. Among their many fascinating features is their atypically large genomes. Here, we dive deep into Asgard genome evolution to u...
