Analyses of the oligopeptide transporter gene family in poplar and grape
(2011)
Background
Oligopeptide transporters (OPTs) are a group of membrane-localized proteins that have a broad range of substrate transport capabilities and that are thought to contribute to many biological processes. The OPT ...
Evidence for acquisition of virulence effectors in pathogenic chytrids
(2011)
Background
The decline in amphibian populations across the world is frequently linked to the infection of the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). This is particularly perplexing because Bd was only recently ...
EGID: an ensemble algorithm for improved genomic island detection in genomic sequences
(2011)
Genomic islands (GIs) are genomic regions that are originally transferred from other organisms. The detection of genomic islands in genomes can lead to many applications in industrial, medical and environmental contexts. ...
Evolution of Plant Nucleotide-Sugar Interconversion Enzymes
(2011)
Nucleotide-diphospho-sugars (NDP-sugars) are the building blocks of diverse polysaccharides and glycoconjugates in all organisms. In plants, 11 families of NDP-sugar interconversion enzymes (NSEs) have been identified, ...
