Journal ArticleDOI

A Field Guide to Eukaryotic Transposable Elements.

TL;DR: It is argued that cataloging TE diversity and dissecting the idiosyncratic behavior of individual elements are crucial to expanding the authors' comprehension of their impact on the biology of genomes and the evolution of species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of condensin and cohesin complexes driven by replacement of Kite by Hawk proteins.

TL;DR: Using a combination of profile Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based homology searches, network analysis and structural alignments, a common origin is identified for these regulators, for which the name Hawks is proposed, i.e. HEAT proteins associated with kleisins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Operon Gene Order Is Optimized for Ordered Protein Complex Assembly.

TL;DR: Using structure-based assembly predictions, it is shown that operon gene order has been optimized to match the order in which protein subunits assemble, showing that ordered protein complex assembly pathways are of significant biological importance and represent a major evolutionary constraint on operon Gene organization.
