eggNOG 4.5: a hierarchical orthology framework with improved functional annotations for eukaryotic, prokaryotic and viral sequences

Abstract: eggNOG is a public resource that provides Orthologous Groups (OGs) of proteins at different taxonomic levels, each with integrated and summarized functional annotations. Developments since the latest public release include changes to the algorithm for creating OGs across taxonomic levels, making nested groups hierarchically consistent. This allows for a better propagation of functional terms across nested OGs and led to the novel annotation of 95 890 previously uncharacterized OGs, increasing overall annotation coverage from 67% to 72%. The functional annotations of OGs have been expanded to also provide Gene Ontology terms, KEGG pathways and SMART/Pfam domains for each group. Moreover, eggNOG now provides pairwise orthology relationships within OGs based on analysis of phylogenetic trees. We have also incorporated a framework for quickly mapping novel sequences to OGs based on precomputed HMM profiles. Finally, eggNOG version 4.5 incorporates a novel data set spanning 2605 viral OGs, covering 5228 proteins from 352 viral proteomes. All data are accessible for bulk downloading, as a web-service, and through a completely redesigned web interface. The new access points provide faster searches and a number of new browsing and visualization capabilities, facilitating the needs of both experts and less experienced users. eggNOG v4.5 is available at http://eggnog.embl.de.

Defect energetics in ZnO: A hybrid Hartree-Fock density functional study

Abstract: First-principles calculations based on hybrid Hartree-Fock density functionals provide a clear picture of the defect energetics and electronic structure in ZnO. Among the donorlike defects, the oxygen vacancy and hydrogen impurity, which are deep and shallow donors, respectively, are likely to form with a substantial concentration in $n$-type ZnO. The zinc interstitial and zinc antisite, which are both shallow donors, are energetically much less favorable. A strong preference for the oxygen vacancy and hydrogen impurity over the acceptorlike zinc vacancy is found under oxygen-poor conditions, suggesting that the oxygen vacancy contributes to nonstoichiometry and that hydrogen acts as a donor, both of which are without significant compensation by the zinc vacancy. The present results show consistency with the relevant experimental observations.

Matrix product states, projected entangled pair states, and variational renormalization group methods for quantum spin systems

Abstract: This article reviews recent developments in the theoretical understanding and the numerical implementation of variational renormalization group methods using matrix product states and projected entangled pair states.

The histopathology of coeliac disease: time for a standardized report scheme for pathologists.

Abstract: In this paper, we review the histological features of coeliac disease and propose a standardized report scheme based on the Marsh classification. Furthermore, terms used by pathologists are defined. The most important histological differential diagnoses are given, as well as a definition of the different clinical forms of coeliac disease such as symptomatic, silent, latent, potential, treated and refractory coeliac disease.
