Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative Genomics of the Eukaryotes

Gerald M. Rubin, +55 more
- 24 Mar 2000 - 
TL;DR: The fly has orthologs to 177 of the 289 human disease genes examined and provides the foundation for rapid analysis of some of the basic processes involved in human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

The neprilysin (NEP) family of zinc metalloendopeptidases: genomics and function.

TL;DR: Knowledge of the complete genomes of Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster allows the full complement of NEP‐like activities to be analysed in a single organism, and reveals the power of functional genomics.
Journal ArticleDOI

The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE).

TL;DR: Mouse knockout experiments, and comparative work with invertebrate homologues, suggest that the two domains of angiotensin converting enzyme have clearly distinct roles.
Journal ArticleDOI

The code within the codons

TL;DR: It is shown that each of the three codon bases has a general correlation with a different, predictable amino acid property, depending on position within the codon, and the apparently systematic nature of these relationships has profound implications for the origin of the genetic code.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning and Expression of an Evolutionary Conserved Single-domain Angiotensin Converting Enzyme from Drosophila melanogaster

TL;DR: An apparent single-domain (67 kDa) insect angiotensin converting enzyme (AnCE) in embryos of Drosophila melanogaster is identified and the cloning and expression of a Drosophile AnCE cDNA is reported which codes for a single- domain 615-amino acid protein with a predicted 17-AMino acid signal peptide and regions with high levels of homology to both the N- and C-domains of mammalian somatic ACE.
