    Description: Rickettsia conorii, the aetiological agent of Mediterranean spotted fever, is an intracellular bacterium transmitted by ticks. Preliminary analyses of the nearly complete genome sequence of R. conorii have revealed 44 occurrences of a previously undescribed palindromic repeat (150 base pairs long) throughout the genome. Unexpectedly, this repeat was found inserted in-frame within 19 different R. conorii open reading frames likely to encode functional proteins. We found the same repeat in proteins of other Rickettsia species. The finding of a mobile element inserted in many unrelated genes suggests the potential role of selfish DNA in the creation of new protein sequences.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ogata, H -- Audic, S -- Barbe, V -- Artiguenave, F -- Fournier, P E -- Raoult, D -- Claverie, J M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Oct 13;290(5490):347-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Information Genetique & Structurale, CNRS-AVENTIS UMR 1889, 31 Chemin Joseph Aiguier, 13402 Marseille Cedex 20, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11030655" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Brown algae (Phaeophyceae) are complex photosynthetic organisms with a very different evolutionary history to green plants, to which they are only distantly related. These seaweeds are the dominant species in rocky coastal ecosystems and they exhibit many interesting adaptations to these, often harsh, environments. Brown algae are also one of only a small number of eukaryotic lineages that have evolved complex multicellularity (Fig. 1). We report the 214 million base pair (Mbp) genome sequence of the filamentous seaweed Ectocarpus siliculosus (Dillwyn) Lyngbye, a model organism for brown algae, closely related to the kelps (Fig. 1). Genome features such as the presence of an extended set of light-harvesting and pigment biosynthesis genes and new metabolic processes such as halide metabolism help explain the ability of this organism to cope with the highly variable tidal environment. The evolution of multicellularity in this lineage is correlated with the presence of a rich array of signal transduction genes. Of particular interest is the presence of a family of receptor kinases, as the independent evolution of related molecules has been linked with the emergence of multicellularity in both the animal and green plant lineages. The Ectocarpus genome sequence represents an important step towards developing this organism as a model species, providing the possibility to combine genomic and genetic approaches to explore these and other aspects of brown algal biology further.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cock, J Mark -- Sterck, Lieven -- Rouze, Pierre -- Scornet, Delphine -- Allen, Andrew E -- Amoutzias, Grigoris -- Anthouard, Veronique -- Artiguenave, Francois -- Aury, Jean-Marc -- Badger, Jonathan H -- Beszteri, Bank -- Billiau, Kenny -- Bonnet, Eric -- Bothwell, John H -- Bowler, Chris -- Boyen, Catherine -- Brownlee, Colin -- Carrano, Carl J -- Charrier, Benedicte -- Cho, Ga Youn -- Coelho, Susana M -- Collen, Jonas -- Corre, Erwan -- Da Silva, Corinne -- Delage, Ludovic -- Delaroque, Nicolas -- Dittami, Simon M -- Doulbeau, Sylvie -- Elias, Marek -- Farnham, Garry -- Gachon, Claire M M -- Gschloessl, Bernhard -- Heesch, Svenja -- Jabbari, Kamel -- Jubin, Claire -- Kawai, Hiroshi -- Kimura, Kei -- Kloareg, Bernard -- Kupper, Frithjof C -- Lang, Daniel -- Le Bail, Aude -- Leblanc, Catherine -- Lerouge, Patrice -- Lohr, Martin -- Lopez, Pascal J -- Martens, Cindy -- Maumus, Florian -- Michel, Gurvan -- Miranda-Saavedra, Diego -- Morales, Julia -- Moreau, Herve -- Motomura, Taizo -- Nagasato, Chikako -- Napoli, Carolyn A -- Nelson, David R -- Nyvall-Collen, Pi -- Peters, Akira F -- Pommier, Cyril -- Potin, Philippe -- Poulain, Julie -- Quesneville, Hadi -- Read, Betsy -- Rensing, Stefan A -- Ritter, Andres -- Rousvoal, Sylvie -- Samanta, Manoj -- Samson, Gaelle -- Schroeder, Declan C -- Segurens, Beatrice -- Strittmatter, Martina -- Tonon, Thierry -- Tregear, James W -- Valentin, Klaus -- von Dassow, Peter -- Yamagishi, Takahiro -- Van de Peer, Yves -- Wincker, Patrick -- England -- Nature. 2010 Jun 3;465(7298):617-21. doi: 10.1038/nature09016.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉UPMC Universite Paris 6, The Marine Plants and Biomolecules Laboratory, UMR 7139, Station Biologique de Roscoff, Place Georges Teissier, BP74, 29682 Roscoff Cedex, France. cock@sb-roscoff.fr〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20520714" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Genomes of animals as different as sponges and humans show conservation of global architecture. Here we show that multiple genomic features including transposon diversity, developmental gene repertoire, physical gene order, and intron-exon organization are shattered in the tunicate Oikopleura, belonging to the sister group of vertebrates and retaining chordate morphology. Ancestral architecture of animal genomes can be deeply modified and may therefore be largely nonadaptive. This rapidly evolving animal lineage thus offers unique perspectives on the level of genome plasticity. It also illuminates issues as fundamental as the mechanisms of intron gain.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3760481/" 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/PMC3760481/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Denoeud, France -- Henriet, Simon -- Mungpakdee, Sutada -- Aury, Jean-Marc -- Da Silva, Corinne -- Brinkmann, Henner -- Mikhaleva, Jana -- Olsen, Lisbeth Charlotte -- Jubin, Claire -- Canestro, Cristian -- Bouquet, Jean-Marie -- Danks, Gemma -- Poulain, Julie -- Campsteijn, Coen -- Adamski, Marcin -- Cross, Ismael -- Yadetie, Fekadu -- Muffato, Matthieu -- Louis, Alexandra -- Butcher, Stephen -- Tsagkogeorga, Georgia -- Konrad, Anke -- Singh, Sarabdeep -- Jensen, Marit Flo -- Huynh Cong, Evelyne -- Eikeseth-Otteraa, Helen -- Noel, Benjamin -- Anthouard, Veronique -- Porcel, Betina M -- Kachouri-Lafond, Rym -- Nishino, Atsuo -- Ugolini, Matteo -- Chourrout, Pascal -- Nishida, Hiroki -- Aasland, Rein -- Huzurbazar, Snehalata -- Westhof, Eric -- Delsuc, Frederic -- Lehrach, Hans -- Reinhardt, Richard -- Weissenbach, Jean -- Roy, Scott W -- Artiguenave, Francois -- Postlethwait, John H -- Manak, J Robert -- Thompson, Eric M -- Jaillon, Olivier -- Du Pasquier, Louis -- Boudinot, Pierre -- Liberles, David A -- Volff, Jean-Nicolas -- Philippe, Herve -- Lenhard, Boris -- Roest Crollius, Hugues -- Wincker, Patrick -- Chourrout, Daniel -- Z01 LM000073-12/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Dec 3;330(6009):1381-5. doi: 10.1126/science.1194167.

    Description: Our knowledge of species and functional composition of the human gut microbiome is rapidly increasing, but it is still based on very few cohorts and little is known about variation across the world. By combining 22 newly sequenced faecal metagenomes of individuals from four countries with previously published data sets, here we identify three robust clusters (referred to as enterotypes hereafter) that are not nation or continent specific. We also confirmed the enterotypes in two published, larger cohorts, indicating that intestinal microbiota variation is generally stratified, not continuous. This indicates further the existence of a limited number of well-balanced host-microbial symbiotic states that might respond differently to diet and drug intake. The enterotypes are mostly driven by species composition, but abundant molecular functions are not necessarily provided by abundant species, highlighting the importance of a functional analysis to understand microbial communities. Although individual host properties such as body mass index, age, or gender cannot explain the observed enterotypes, data-driven marker genes or functional modules can be identified for each of these host properties. For example, twelve genes significantly correlate with age and three functional modules with the body mass index, hinting at a diagnostic potential of microbial markers.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3728647/" 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/PMC3728647/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Arumugam, Manimozhiyan -- Raes, Jeroen -- Pelletier, Eric -- Le Paslier, Denis -- Yamada, Takuji -- Mende, Daniel R -- Fernandes, Gabriel R -- Tap, Julien -- Bruls, Thomas -- Batto, Jean-Michel -- Bertalan, Marcelo -- Borruel, Natalia -- Casellas, Francesc -- Fernandez, Leyden -- Gautier, Laurent -- Hansen, Torben -- Hattori, Masahira -- Hayashi, Tetsuya -- Kleerebezem, Michiel -- Kurokawa, Ken -- Leclerc, Marion -- Levenez, Florence -- Manichanh, Chaysavanh -- Nielsen, H Bjorn -- Nielsen, Trine -- Pons, Nicolas -- Poulain, Julie -- Qin, Junjie -- Sicheritz-Ponten, Thomas -- Tims, Sebastian -- Torrents, David -- Ugarte, Edgardo -- Zoetendal, Erwin G -- Wang, Jun -- Guarner, Francisco -- Pedersen, Oluf -- de Vos, Willem M -- Brunak, Soren -- Dore, Joel -- MetaHIT Consortium -- Antolin, Maria -- Artiguenave, Francois -- Blottiere, Herve M -- Almeida, Mathieu -- Brechot, Christian -- Cara, Carlos -- Chervaux, Christian -- Cultrone, Antonella -- Delorme, Christine -- Denariaz, Gerard -- Dervyn, Rozenn -- Foerstner, Konrad U -- Friss, Carsten -- van de Guchte, Maarten -- Guedon, Eric -- Haimet, Florence -- Huber, Wolfgang -- van Hylckama-Vlieg, Johan -- Jamet, Alexandre -- Juste, Catherine -- Kaci, Ghalia -- Knol, Jan -- Lakhdari, Omar -- Layec, Severine -- Le Roux, Karine -- Maguin, Emmanuelle -- Merieux, Alexandre -- Melo Minardi, Raquel -- M'rini, Christine -- Muller, Jean -- Oozeer, Raish -- Parkhill, Julian -- Renault, Pierre -- Rescigno, Maria -- Sanchez, Nicolas -- Sunagawa, Shinichi -- Torrejon, Antonio -- Turner, Keith -- Vandemeulebrouck, Gaetana -- Varela, Encarna -- Winogradsky, Yohanan -- Zeller, Georg -- Weissenbach, Jean -- Ehrlich, S Dusko -- Bork, Peer -- 076964/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 082372/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2011 May 12;473(7346):174-80. doi: 10.1038/nature09944.

    Description: The Perigord black truffle (Tuber melanosporum Vittad.) and the Piedmont white truffle dominate today's truffle market. The hypogeous fruiting body of T. melanosporum is a gastronomic delicacy produced by an ectomycorrhizal symbiont endemic to calcareous soils in southern Europe. The worldwide demand for this truffle has fuelled intense efforts at cultivation. Identification of processes that condition and trigger fruit body and symbiosis formation, ultimately leading to efficient crop production, will be facilitated by a thorough analysis of truffle genomic traits. In the ectomycorrhizal Laccaria bicolor, the expansion of gene families may have acted as a 'symbiosis toolbox'. This feature may however reflect evolution of this particular taxon and not a general trait shared by all ectomycorrhizal species. To get a better understanding of the biology and evolution of the ectomycorrhizal symbiosis, we report here the sequence of the haploid genome of T. melanosporum, which at approximately 125 megabases is the largest and most complex fungal genome sequenced so far. This expansion results from a proliferation of transposable elements accounting for approximately 58% of the genome. In contrast, this genome only contains approximately 7,500 protein-coding genes with very rare multigene families. It lacks large sets of carbohydrate cleaving enzymes, but a few of them involved in degradation of plant cell walls are induced in symbiotic tissues. The latter feature and the upregulation of genes encoding for lipases and multicopper oxidases suggest that T. melanosporum degrades its host cell walls during colonization. Symbiosis induces an increased expression of carbohydrate and amino acid transporters in both L. bicolor and T. melanosporum, but the comparison of genomic traits in the two ectomycorrhizal fungi showed that genetic predispositions for symbiosis-'the symbiosis toolbox'-evolved along different ways in ascomycetes and basidiomycetes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Martin, Francis -- Kohler, Annegret -- Murat, Claude -- Balestrini, Raffaella -- Coutinho, Pedro M -- Jaillon, Olivier -- Montanini, Barbara -- Morin, Emmanuelle -- Noel, Benjamin -- Percudani, Riccardo -- Porcel, Bettina -- Rubini, Andrea -- Amicucci, Antonella -- Amselem, Joelle -- Anthouard, Veronique -- Arcioni, Sergio -- Artiguenave, Francois -- Aury, Jean-Marc -- Ballario, Paola -- Bolchi, Angelo -- Brenna, Andrea -- Brun, Annick -- Buee, Marc -- Cantarel, Brandi -- Chevalier, Gerard -- Couloux, Arnaud -- Da Silva, Corinne -- Denoeud, France -- Duplessis, Sebastien -- Ghignone, Stefano -- Hilselberger, Benoit -- Iotti, Mirco -- Marcais, Benoit -- Mello, Antonietta -- Miranda, Michele -- Pacioni, Giovanni -- Quesneville, Hadi -- Riccioni, Claudia -- Ruotolo, Roberta -- Splivallo, Richard -- Stocchi, Vilberto -- Tisserant, Emilie -- Viscomi, Arturo Roberto -- Zambonelli, Alessandra -- Zampieri, Elisa -- Henrissat, Bernard -- Lebrun, Marc-Henri -- Paolocci, Francesco -- Bonfante, Paola -- Ottonello, Simone -- Wincker, Patrick -- England -- Nature. 2010 Apr 15;464(7291):1033-8. doi: 10.1038/nature08867.
