When the Earth froze over, where did life shelter? MIT scientists say one refuge may have been pools of melted ice that ...

the proteins decouple from the multiplicative process of gene growth, and the average protein length stabilizes after the onset of the eukaryotic cell at about 500 amino acids in a clear threshold ...

Sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) provides valuable insights into past ecosystems, yet its functional diversity has remained unexplored due to potential limitations in gene annotation for short-read ...

But the genes were much more similar between archaea and eukaryotes than between bacteria and the other two domains. In particular, the catalytic sites — key parts of the proteins that perform ...

Abstract: Computational intelligent approaches is adopted to construct the S-system of eukaryotic cell cycle for further analysis of genetic regulatory networks. A highly nonlinear power-law ...

Abstract: The problem of computational gene prediction in eukaryotic DNA is investigated. The discrete Fourier transform is used to reveal the periodicity of three ...

The 1586 Eukaryotes were classified using the taxonomic hierarchical classification ... average_mean_lengths__order.ipynb. Extended Data Fig. 6a: order of the average mean gene lengths for the ...

"We knew from individual examples that viral genes have played a role in the evolution of eukaryotes. Even humans have viral genes, which are important for our development and brain function ...

Prokaryotes acquire genes from the environment via lateral gene transfer (LGT). Recombination of environmental DNA can prevent the accumulation of deleterious mutations, but LGT was abandoned by the ...
