TL;DR: A proteome-based phylogeny shows that the amoebozoa diverged from the animal–fungal lineage after the plant–animal split, but Dictyostelium seems to have retained more of the diversity of the ancestral genome than have plants, animals or fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete genome sequence of the apicomplexan, Cryptosporidium parvum.

Bankier,Paul H. Dear,Bernard Anri Konfortov,Helen Spriggs,Lakshminarayan M. Iyer,Vivek Anantharaman,L. Aravind,Vivek Kapur +19 more
TL;DR: Genome analysis identifies extremely streamlined metabolic pathways and a reliance on the host for nutrients in the parasite, which lacks an apicoplast and its genome, and possesses a degenerate mitochondrion that has lost its genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The sequence of chromosomes 1, 3–9 and 13 of P. falciparum clone 3D7 is reported—these chromosomes account for approximately 55% of the total genome, and a highly conserved sequence element is identified in the intergenic region of internal var genes that is not associated with their telomeric counterparts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progressive 3q Amplification Consistently Targets SOX2 in Preinvasive Squamous Lung Cancer
Frank McCaughan,Jessica C.M. Pole,Alan T. Bankier,Bernard Anri Konfortov,Bernadette Carroll,Mary Falzon,Terence H. Rabbitts,P. Jeremy George,Paul H. Dear,Pamela Rabbitts +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a detailed analysis of the 3q amplicon in bronchial dysplasia of different histological grades and identified a minimum commonly amplified region on chromosome 3 consisting of 17 genes, including two known oncogenes, SOX2 and PIK3CA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrated Mapping, Chromosomal Sequencing and Sequence Analysis of Cryptosporidium parvum
Alan T. Bankier,Helen Spriggs,Berthold Fartmann,Bernard Anri Konfortov,Martin Madera,Christine Vogel,Sarah A. Teichmann,Al Ivens,Paul H. Dear +8 more
TL;DR: Coding sequence analysis argues against the conventional phylogenetic position of Cryptosporidium and supports an earlier suggestion that this genus arose from an early branching within the Apicomplexa.
