    The Amphimedon queenslandica genome and the evolution of animal complexity (2010)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2010-08-06
    Description: Sponges are an ancient group of animals that diverged from other metazoans over 600 million years ago. Here we present the draft genome sequence of Amphimedon queenslandica, a demosponge from the Great Barrier Reef, and show that it is remarkably similar to other animal genomes in content, structure and organization. Comparative analysis enabled by the sequencing of the sponge genome reveals genomic events linked to the origin and early evolution of animals, including the appearance, expansion and diversification of pan-metazoan transcription factor, signalling pathway and structural genes. This diverse 'toolkit' of genes correlates with critical aspects of all metazoan body plans, and comprises cell cycle control and growth, development, somatic- and germ-cell specification, cell adhesion, innate immunity and allorecognition. Notably, many of the genes associated with the emergence of animals are also implicated in cancer, which arises from defects in basic processes associated with metazoan multicellularity.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3130542/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3130542/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Srivastava, Mansi -- Simakov, Oleg -- Chapman, Jarrod -- Fahey, Bryony -- Gauthier, Marie E A -- Mitros, Therese -- Richards, Gemma S -- Conaco, Cecilia -- Dacre, Michael -- Hellsten, Uffe -- Larroux, Claire -- Putnam, Nicholas H -- Stanke, Mario -- Adamska, Maja -- Darling, Aaron -- Degnan, Sandie M -- Oakley, Todd H -- Plachetzki, David C -- Zhai, Yufeng -- Adamski, Marcin -- Calcino, Andrew -- Cummins, Scott F -- Goodstein, David M -- Harris, Christina -- Jackson, Daniel J -- Leys, Sally P -- Shu, Shengqiang -- Woodcroft, Ben J -- Vervoort, Michel -- Kosik, Kenneth S -- Manning, Gerard -- Degnan, Bernard M -- Rokhsar, Daniel S -- R01 HG004164/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG004164-03/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG004164-04/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2010 Aug 5;466(7307):720-6. doi: 10.1038/nature09201.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Integrative Genomics and Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA. mansi@wi.mit.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20686567" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Methane dynamics regulated by microbial community response to permafrost thaw (2014)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-10-25
    Description: Permafrost contains about 50% of the global soil carbon. It is thought that the thawing of permafrost can lead to a loss of soil carbon in the form of methane and carbon dioxide emissions. The magnitude of the resulting positive climate feedback of such greenhouse gas emissions is still unknown and may to a large extent depend on the poorly understood role of microbial community composition in regulating the metabolic processes that drive such ecosystem-scale greenhouse gas fluxes. Here we show that changes in vegetation and increasing methane emissions with permafrost thaw are associated with a switch from hydrogenotrophic to partly acetoclastic methanogenesis, resulting in a large shift in the delta(13)C signature (10-15 per thousand) of emitted methane. We used a natural landscape gradient of permafrost thaw in northern Sweden as a model to investigate the role of microbial communities in regulating methane cycling, and to test whether a knowledge of community dynamics could improve predictions of carbon emissions under loss of permafrost. Abundance of the methanogen Candidatus 'Methanoflorens stordalenmirensis' is a key predictor of the shifts in methane isotopes, which in turn predicts the proportions of carbon emitted as methane and as carbon dioxide, an important factor for simulating the climate feedback associated with permafrost thaw in global models. By showing that the abundance of key microbial lineages can be used to predict atmospherically relevant patterns in methane isotopes and the proportion of carbon metabolized to methane during permafrost thaw, we establish a basis for scaling changing microbial communities to ecosystem isotope dynamics. Our findings indicate that microbial ecology may be important in ecosystem-scale responses to global change.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉McCalley, Carmody K -- Woodcroft, Ben J -- Hodgkins, Suzanne B -- Wehr, Richard A -- Kim, Eun-Hae -- Mondav, Rhiannon -- Crill, Patrick M -- Chanton, Jeffrey P -- Rich, Virginia I -- Tyson, Gene W -- Saleska, Scott R -- England -- Nature. 2014 Oct 23;514(7523):478-81. doi: 10.1038/nature13798.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721, USA. ; Australian Centre for Ecogenomics, School of Chemistry and Molecular Biosciences, University of Queensland, Brisbane 4072, Queensland, Australia. ; Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Science, Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida 32306, USA. ; Department of Soil, Water and Environmental Science, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721, USA. ; Department of Geological Sciences, Stockholm University, Stockholm 106 91, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25341787" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
