Even fairly deep sequencing of randomly selected cDNA clones fails to elucidate the structures of the 20–40% of genes in a typical eukaryotic genome that are expressed only at low levels or ...

Our view of what a typical eukaryotic microorganism's genome looks ... two older WGD events could also be inferred based on gene order but with lower conservation. An even more ancient event ...

This process has been an important factor in eukaryotic evolution, yet the number and timing of these events remains unresolved. One of the main results of secondary endosymbiosis has been the ...

Eukaryotes and archaea have long been considered “sister groups” based on similarities in their genes and metabolic pathways. But it wasn’t clear whether eukaryotes and archaea shared a common ...

This achievement represents the completion of the global Sc2.0 project to create the world’s first synthetic eukaryotic genome ... team used specialized gene editing tools to identify and ...
