The first bacterial genome was sequenced in 1995, and the first archaeal genome in 1996.
Soon after these breakthroughs, an exponential rate of genome sequencing was …

Until recently the study of individual DNA sequences and of total DNA content (the C-value)
sat at opposite ends of the spectrum in genome biology. For gene sequencers, the vast …

In bacteria, magnesium uptake is mainly mediated by the well-characterized CorA type of
membrane proteins. In recent years, functional homologues have been characterized in the …

The term 'breeding system'is used to describe the morphological and behavioural aspects of
the sexual life cycle of a species. The yeast breeding system provides three alternatives that …

Peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles which participate in a variety of essential
biochemical pathways. An intimate interrelationship between peroxisomes and mitochondria …

Here, we describe a novel peroxin, Pex37, in the yeast Hansenula polymorpha. H.
polymorpha Pex37 is a peroxisomal membrane protein, which belongs to a protein family …

Background Proteins do not act in isolation; they frequently act together in protein
complexes to carry out concerted cellular functions. The evolution of complexes is poorly …

Background Gene order along the genome sequence of the human parasite Trypanosoma
brucei provides evidence for a 0.5 Mb duplication, comprising the 3'regions of chromosomes …

Peroxisomes are ubiquitous cell organelles that play a central role in cellular lipid and
hydrogen peroxide metabolism. These organelles also fulfill several non-metabolic functions …
