Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of the Core of a Minimal Bacterial Gene Set

TL;DR: A computational comparative analysis of eight bacterial genomes was performed, and the proposed minimal genome contains 206 protein-coding genes with all the genetic information necessary for self-maintenance and reproduction in the presence of a full complement of essential nutrients and in the absence of environmental stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Learning how to live together: genomic insights into prokaryote–animal symbioses

TL;DR: The authors' understanding of prokaryote–eukaryote symbioses as a source of evolutionary innovation has been rapidly increased by the advent of genomics, which has made possible the biological study of uncultivable endosymbionts.
Journal ArticleDOI

A universal definition of life: autonomy and open-ended evolution.

TL;DR: It is proposed to define universally living beings as autonomous systems with open-ended evolution capacities, and it is claimed that all such systems must have a semi-permeable active boundary, an energy transduction apparatus and, at least, two types of functionally interdependent macromolecular components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ancestral lipid biosynthesis and early membrane evolution

TL;DR: The cenancestor seems likely to have been endowed with membrane lipids whose synthesis was enzymatic but probably non-stereospecific, and which belonged to two separate superfamilies that are universally distributed, suggesting that members of both superfam families existed in the cenciestor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serratia symbiotica from the aphid Cinara cedri: a missing link from facultative to obligate insect endosymbiont.

TL;DR: The genome sequencing of Buchnera aphidicola BCc from the aphid Cinara cedri revealed that this bacterium had lost its symbiotic role, as it was not able to synthesize tryptophan and riboflavin, and an evolutionary scenario of the transition from facultative to obligate endosymbiont is proposed.
