    Kepler eclipsing binary stars - VI. Identification of eclipsing binaries in the K2 Campaign 0 data set (2015)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-08-08
    Description: The original Kepler mission observed and characterized over 2400 eclipsing binaries (EBs) in addition to its prolific exoplanet detections. Despite the mechanical malfunction and subsequent non-recovery of two reaction wheels used to stabilize the instrument, the Kepler satellite continues collecting data in its repurposed K2 mission surveying a series of fields along the ecliptic plane. Here, we present an analysis of the first full baseline K2 data release: the Campaign 0 data set. In the 7761 light curves we have identified a total of 207 EBs. Of these, 97 are new discoveries that were not previously identified. Our pixel-level analysis of these objects has also resulted in identification of several false positives (observed targets contaminated by neighbouring EBs), as well as the serendipitous discovery of two short-period exoplanet candidates. We provide catalogue cross-matched source identifications, orbital periods, morphologies and ephemerides for these eclipsing systems. We also describe the incorporation of the K2 sample into the Kepler Eclipsing Binary Catalog, § present spectroscopic follow-up observations for a limited selection of nine systems and discuss prospects for upcoming K2 campaigns.

    Complete genome sequence of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B strain MC58 (2000)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2000-03-10
    Description: The 2,272,351-base pair genome of Neisseria meningitidis strain MC58 (serogroup B), a causative agent of meningitis and septicemia, contains 2158 predicted coding regions, 1158 (53.7%) of which were assigned a biological role. Three major islands of horizontal DNA transfer were identified; two of these contain genes encoding proteins involved in pathogenicity, and the third island contains coding sequences only for hypothetical proteins. Insights into the commensal and virulence behavior of N. meningitidis can be gleaned from the genome, in which sequences for structural proteins of the pilus are clustered and several coding regions unique to serogroup B capsular polysaccharide synthesis can be identified. Finally, N. meningitidis contains more genes that undergo phase variation than any pathogen studied to date, a mechanism that controls their expression and contributes to the evasion of the host immune system.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tettelin, H -- Saunders, N J -- Heidelberg, J -- Jeffries, A C -- Nelson, K E -- Eisen, J A -- Ketchum, K A -- Hood, D W -- Peden, J F -- Dodson, R J -- Nelson, W C -- Gwinn, M L -- DeBoy, R -- Peterson, J D -- Hickey, E K -- Haft, D H -- Salzberg, S L -- White, O -- Fleischmann, R D -- Dougherty, B A -- Mason, T -- Ciecko, A -- Parksey, D S -- Blair, E -- Cittone, H -- Clark, E B -- Cotton, M D -- Utterback, T R -- Khouri, H -- Qin, H -- Vamathevan, J -- Gill, J -- Scarlato, V -- Masignani, V -- Pizza, M -- Grandi, G -- Sun, L -- Smith, H O -- Fraser, C M -- Moxon, E R -- Rappuoli, R -- Venter, J C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2000 Mar 10;287(5459):1809-15.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR), 9712 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10710307" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Complete genome sequence of a virulent isolate of Streptococcus pneumoniae (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-07-21
    Description: The 2,160,837-base pair genome sequence of an isolate of Streptococcus pneumoniae, a Gram-positive pathogen that causes pneumonia, bacteremia, meningitis, and otitis media, contains 2236 predicted coding regions; of these, 1440 (64%) were assigned a biological role. Approximately 5% of the genome is composed of insertion sequences that may contribute to genome rearrangements through uptake of foreign DNA. Extracellular enzyme systems for the metabolism of polysaccharides and hexosamines provide a substantial source of carbon and nitrogen for S. pneumoniae and also damage host tissues and facilitate colonization. A motif identified within the signal peptide of proteins is potentially involved in targeting these proteins to the cell surface of low-guanine/cytosine (GC) Gram-positive species. Several surface-exposed proteins that may serve as potential vaccine candidates were identified. Comparative genome hybridization with DNA arrays revealed strain differences in S. pneumoniae that could contribute to differences in virulence and antigenicity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tettelin, H -- Nelson, K E -- Paulsen, I T -- Eisen, J A -- Read, T D -- Peterson, S -- Heidelberg, J -- DeBoy, R T -- Haft, D H -- Dodson, R J -- Durkin, A S -- Gwinn, M -- Kolonay, J F -- Nelson, W C -- Peterson, J D -- Umayam, L A -- White, O -- Salzberg, S L -- Lewis, M R -- Radune, D -- Holtzapple, E -- Khouri, H -- Wolf, A M -- Utterback, T R -- Hansen, C L -- McDonald, L A -- Feldblyum, T V -- Angiuoli, S -- Dickinson, T -- Hickey, E K -- Holt, I E -- Loftus, B J -- Yang, F -- Smith, H O -- Venter, J C -- Dougherty, B A -- Morrison, D A -- Hollingshead, S K -- Fraser, C M -- R01 AI40645-01A1/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Jul 20;293(5529):498-506.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR), 9712 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11463916" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Genome sequence of the radioresistant bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans R1 (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-11-24
    Description: The complete genome sequence of the radiation-resistant bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans R1 is composed of two chromosomes (2,648,638 and 412,348 base pairs), a megaplasmid (177,466 base pairs), and a small plasmid (45,704 base pairs), yielding a total genome of 3,284, 156 base pairs. Multiple components distributed on the chromosomes and megaplasmid that contribute to the ability of D. radiodurans to survive under conditions of starvation, oxidative stress, and high amounts of DNA damage were identified. Deinococcus radiodurans represents an organism in which all systems for DNA repair, DNA damage export, desiccation and starvation recovery, and genetic redundancy are present in one cell.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4147723/" 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/PMC4147723/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉White, O -- Eisen, J A -- Heidelberg, J F -- Hickey, E K -- Peterson, J D -- Dodson, R J -- Haft, D H -- Gwinn, M L -- Nelson, W C -- Richardson, D L -- Moffat, K S -- Qin, H -- Jiang, L -- Pamphile, W -- Crosby, M -- Shen, M -- Vamathevan, J J -- Lam, P -- McDonald, L -- Utterback, T -- Zalewski, C -- Makarova, K S -- Aravind, L -- Daly, M J -- Minton, K W -- Fleischmann, R D -- Ketchum, K A -- Nelson, K E -- Salzberg, S -- Smith, H O -- Venter, J C -- Fraser, C M -- R01 CA077712/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Nov 19;286(5444):1571-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Genomic Research, 9712 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10567266" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Functional metagenomic profiling of nine biomes (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-03-14
    Description: Microbial activities shape the biogeochemistry of the planet and macroorganism health. Determining the metabolic processes performed by microbes is important both for understanding and for manipulating ecosystems (for example, disruption of key processes that lead to disease, conservation of environmental services, and so on). Describing microbial function is hampered by the inability to culture most microbes and by high levels of genomic plasticity. Metagenomic approaches analyse microbial communities to determine the metabolic processes that are important for growth and survival in any given environment. Here we conduct a metagenomic comparison of almost 15 million sequences from 45 distinct microbiomes and, for the first time, 42 distinct viromes and show that there are strongly discriminatory metabolic profiles across environments. Most of the functional diversity was maintained in all of the communities, but the relative occurrence of metabolisms varied, and the differences between metagenomes predicted the biogeochemical conditions of each environment. The magnitude of the microbial metabolic capabilities encoded by the viromes was extensive, suggesting that they serve as a repository for storing and sharing genes among their microbial hosts and influence global evolutionary and metabolic processes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dinsdale, Elizabeth A -- Edwards, Robert A -- Hall, Dana -- Angly, Florent -- Breitbart, Mya -- Brulc, Jennifer M -- Furlan, Mike -- Desnues, Christelle -- Haynes, Matthew -- Li, Linlin -- McDaniel, Lauren -- Moran, Mary Ann -- Nelson, Karen E -- Nilsson, Christina -- Olson, Robert -- Paul, John -- Brito, Beltran Rodriguez -- Ruan, Yijun -- Swan, Brandon K -- Stevens, Rick -- Valentine, David L -- Thurber, Rebecca Vega -- Wegley, Linda -- White, Bryan A -- Rohwer, Forest -- England -- Nature. 2008 Apr 3;452(7187):629-32. doi: 10.1038/nature06810.

    Environmental genome shotgun sequencing of the Sargasso Sea (2004)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2004-04-07
    Description: We have applied "whole-genome shotgun sequencing" to microbial populations collected en masse on tangential flow and impact filters from seawater samples collected from the Sargasso Sea near Bermuda. A total of 1.045 billion base pairs of nonredundant sequence was generated, annotated, and analyzed to elucidate the gene content, diversity, and relative abundance of the organisms within these environmental samples. These data are estimated to derive from at least 1800 genomic species based on sequence relatedness, including 148 previously unknown bacterial phylotypes. We have identified over 1.2 million previously unknown genes represented in these samples, including more than 782 new rhodopsin-like photoreceptors. Variation in species present and stoichiometry suggests substantial oceanic microbial diversity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Venter, J Craig -- Remington, Karin -- Heidelberg, John F -- Halpern, Aaron L -- Rusch, Doug -- Eisen, Jonathan A -- Wu, Dongying -- Paulsen, Ian -- Nelson, Karen E -- Nelson, William -- Fouts, Derrick E -- Levy, Samuel -- Knap, Anthony H -- Lomas, Michael W -- Nealson, Ken -- White, Owen -- Peterson, Jeremy -- Hoffman, Jeff -- Parsons, Rachel -- Baden-Tillson, Holly -- Pfannkoch, Cynthia -- Rogers, Yu-Hui -- Smith, Hamilton O -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Apr 2;304(5667):66-74.

    Role of mobile DNA in the evolution of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-03-29
    Description: The complete genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis V583, a vancomycin-resistant clinical isolate, revealed that more than a quarter of the genome consists of probable mobile or foreign DNA. One of the predicted mobile elements is a previously unknown vanB vancomycin-resistance conjugative transposon. Three plasmids were identified, including two pheromone-sensing conjugative plasmids, one encoding a previously undescribed pheromone inhibitor. The apparent propensity for the incorporation of mobile elements probably contributed to the rapid acquisition and dissemination of drug resistance in the enterococci.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Paulsen, I T -- Banerjei, L -- Myers, G S A -- Nelson, K E -- Seshadri, R -- Read, T D -- Fouts, D E -- Eisen, J A -- Gill, S R -- Heidelberg, J F -- Tettelin, H -- Dodson, R J -- Umayam, L -- Brinkac, L -- Beanan, M -- Daugherty, S -- DeBoy, R T -- Durkin, S -- Kolonay, J -- Madupu, R -- Nelson, W -- Vamathevan, J -- Tran, B -- Upton, J -- Hansen, T -- Shetty, J -- Khouri, H -- Utterback, T -- Radune, D -- Ketchum, K A -- Dougherty, B A -- Fraser, C M -- AI40963-02/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Mar 28;299(5615):2071-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Genomic Research, 9712 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850, USA. ipaulsen@tigr.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12663927" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Genome sequence of the PCE-dechlorinating bacterium Dehalococcoides ethenogenes (2005)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2005-01-08
    Description: Dehalococcoides ethenogenes is the only bacterium known to reductively dechlorinate the groundwater pollutants, tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene, to ethene. Its 1,469,720-base pair chromosome contains large dynamic duplicated regions and integrated elements. Genes encoding 17 putative reductive dehalogenases, nearly all of which were adjacent to genes for transcription regulators, and five hydrogenase complexes were identified. These findings, plus a limited repertoire of other metabolic modes, indicate that D. ethenogenes is highly evolved to utilize halogenated organic compounds and H2. Diversification of reductive dehalogenase functions appears to have been mediated by recent genetic exchange and amplification. Genome analysis provides insights into the organism's complex nutrient requirements and suggests that an ancestor was a nitrogen-fixing autotroph.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Seshadri, Rekha -- Adrian, Lorenz -- Fouts, Derrick E -- Eisen, Jonathan A -- Phillippy, Adam M -- Methe, Barbara A -- Ward, Naomi L -- Nelson, William C -- Deboy, Robert T -- Khouri, Hoda M -- Kolonay, James F -- Dodson, Robert J -- Daugherty, Sean C -- Brinkac, Lauren M -- Sullivan, Steven A -- Madupu, Ramana -- Nelson, Karen E -- Kang, Katherine H -- Impraim, Marjorie -- Tran, Kevin -- Robinson, Jeffrey M -- Forberger, Heather A -- Fraser, Claire M -- Zinder, Stephen H -- Heidelberg, John F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jan 7;307(5706):105-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Genomic Research, 9712 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850, USA. rekha@tigr.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15637277" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Genome of Geobacter sulfurreducens: metal reduction in subsurface environments (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-12-13
    Description: The complete genome sequence of Geobacter sulfurreducens, a delta-proteobacterium, reveals unsuspected capabilities, including evidence of aerobic metabolism, one-carbon and complex carbon metabolism, motility, and chemotactic behavior. These characteristics, coupled with the possession of many two-component sensors and many c-type cytochromes, reveal an ability to create alternative, redundant, electron transport networks and offer insights into the process of metal ion reduction in subsurface environments. As well as playing roles in the global cycling of metals and carbon, this organism clearly has the potential for use in bioremediation of radioactive metals and in the generation of electricity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Methe, B A -- Nelson, K E -- Eisen, J A -- Paulsen, I T -- Nelson, W -- Heidelberg, J F -- Wu, D -- Wu, M -- Ward, N -- Beanan, M J -- Dodson, R J -- Madupu, R -- Brinkac, L M -- Daugherty, S C -- DeBoy, R T -- Durkin, A S -- Gwinn, M -- Kolonay, J F -- Sullivan, S A -- Haft, D H -- Selengut, J -- Davidsen, T M -- Zafar, N -- White, O -- Tran, B -- Romero, C -- Forberger, H A -- Weidman, J -- Khouri, H -- Feldblyum, T V -- Utterback, T R -- Van Aken, S E -- Lovley, D R -- Fraser, C M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Dec 12;302(5652):1967-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Genomic Research, 9712 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850, USA. bmethe@tigr.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14671304" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
