Murat et al. Genome Biology (2015) 16:262 DOI 10.1186/s13059-015-0814-y RESEARCH Open Access Understanding Brassicaceae evolution through ancestral genome reconstruction Florent Murat1†, Alexandra Louis2,3,4†, Florian Maumus5†, Alix Armero1, Richard Cooke6, Hadi Quesneville5, Hugues Roest Crollius2,3,4 and Jerome Salse1* Abstract Background: Brassicaceae is a family of green plants of high scientific and economic interest, including thale cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), cruciferous vegetables (cabbages) and rapeseed. Results: We reconstruct an evolutionary framework of Brassicaceae composed of high-resolution ancestral karyotypes using the genomes of modern A. thaliana, Arabidopsis lyrata, Capsella rubella, Brassica rapa and Thellungiella parvula. The ancestral Brassicaceae karyotype (Brassicaceae lineages I and II) is composed of eight protochromosomes and 20,037 ordered and oriented protogenes. After speciation, it evolved into the ancestral Camelineae karyotype (eight protochromosomes and 22,085 ordered protogenes) and the proto-Calepineae karyotype (seven protochromosomes and 21,035 ordered protogenes) genomes. Conclusions: The three inferred ancestral karyotype genomes are shown here to be powerful tools to unravel the reticulated evolutionary history of extant Brassicaceae genomes regarding the fate of ancestral genes and genomic compartments, particularly centromeres and evolutionary breakpoints. This new resource should accelerate research in comparative genomics and translational research by facilitating the transfer of genomic information from model systems to species of agronomic interest.

The propagation of the most ancient SVA type A took place about 13.5 Myrs ago, and the youngest SVA types appeared in the human genome after the chimpanzee divergence. Functional enrichment analysis of genes associated with SVA insertions demonstrated their strong link to multiple ontological categories attributed to brain function and the disorders. SVA types that expanded their presence in the human genome at different stages of hominoid life history were also associated with progressively evolving behavioural features that indicated a potential impact of SVA propagation on a cognitive ability of a modern human.

Accepted: February 1, 2019 Data deposition: This project has been deposited at NCBI under the accesion SRP155233 Abstract The major human pathogens Trypanosoma cruzi, Trypanosoma brucei,andLeishmania major are collectively known as the Tritryps. The initial comparative analysis of their genomes has uncovered that Tritryps share a great number of genes, but repetitive DNA seems to be extremely variable between them. However, the in-depth characterization of repetitive DNA in these pathogens has been in part neglected, mainly due to the well-known technical challenges of studying repetitive sequences from de novo assemblies using short reads. Here, we compared the repetitive DNA repertories between the Tritryps genomes using genome-wide, low- coverage Illumina sequencing coupled to RepeatExplorer analysis. Our work demonstrates that this extensively implemented ap- proach for studying higher eukaryote repeatomes is also useful for protozoan parasites like trypanosomatids, as we recovered previously observed differences in the presence and amount of repetitive DNA families.

Bjorkman, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA, and approved November 29, 2004 (received for review October 7, 2004) Adenylate kinases (AKs) play important roles in nucleotide metab- human AD-004 (also referred to as AK6) has been described in olism in all organisms and in cellular energetics by means of ref. 10. Crystals of AK6 were obtained at room temperature phosphotransfer networks in eukaryotes. The crystal structure of within 2 weeks from conditions containing 1.44 M Li2SO4 in a human AK named AK6 was determined by in-house sulfur 0.1M Hepes, pH 7.5, by using the hanging-drop vapor diffusion single-wavelength anomalous dispersion phasing methods and method. The crystals belong to the space group P61 with unit cell refined to 2.0-Å resolution with a free R factor of 21.8%. Sequence parameters a ϭ b ϭ 99.56 Å and c ϭ 57.19 Å.
