TL;DR: A liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based method permitting unbiased (gene prediction–independent) genome-wide discovery of protein-coding loci in higher eukaryotes is presented.

TL;DR: The emergence of distinct populations of Cryptococcus gattii in the temperate North American Pacific Northwest was surprising, as this species was previously thought to be confined to tropical and semitropical regions.

TL;DR: LogoBar as discussed by the authors is a Java application to display protein sequence logos, where gaps are accounted for when calculating the information content present at each residue position in a multiple alignment, and residues can either be arranged according to their relative abundance or grouped according to user criteria to emphasize the conserved nature of particular positions.

TL;DR: A large number of resources now exist, each with its own idiosyncrasies, and the goal of this review is to compare their contents and clarify which database is most suited for a certain task.

TL;DR: It is concluded that mtDNA point mutations do not appear to be directly or indirectly involved in the pathogenesis of mitochondrial disease in patients with different POLG1 mutations.
