Beschreibung: The comparison of related genomes has emerged as a powerful lens for genome interpretation. Here we report the sequencing and comparative analysis of 29 eutherian genomes. We confirm that at least 5.5% of the human genome has undergone purifying selection, and locate constrained elements covering approximately 4.2% of the genome. We use evolutionary signatures and comparisons with experimental data sets to suggest candidate functions for approximately 60% of constrained bases. These elements reveal a small number of new coding exons, candidate stop codon readthrough events and over 10,000 regions of overlapping synonymous constraint within protein-coding exons. We find 220 candidate RNA structural families, and nearly a million elements overlapping potential promoter, enhancer and insulator regions. We report specific amino acid residues that have undergone positive selection, 280,000 non-coding elements exapted from mobile elements and more than 1,000 primate- and human-accelerated elements. Overlap with disease-associated variants indicates that our findings will be relevant for studies of human biology, health and disease.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3207357/" 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/PMC3207357/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lindblad-Toh, Kerstin -- Garber, Manuel -- Zuk, Or -- Lin, Michael F -- Parker, Brian J -- Washietl, Stefan -- Kheradpour, Pouya -- Ernst, Jason -- Jordan, Gregory -- Mauceli, Evan -- Ward, Lucas D -- Lowe, Craig B -- Holloway, Alisha K -- Clamp, Michele -- Gnerre, Sante -- Alfoldi, Jessica -- Beal, Kathryn -- Chang, Jean -- Clawson, Hiram -- Cuff, James -- Di Palma, Federica -- Fitzgerald, Stephen -- Flicek, Paul -- Guttman, Mitchell -- Hubisz, Melissa J -- Jaffe, David B -- Jungreis, Irwin -- Kent, W James -- Kostka, Dennis -- Lara, Marcia -- Martins, Andre L -- Massingham, Tim -- Moltke, Ida -- Raney, Brian J -- Rasmussen, Matthew D -- Robinson, Jim -- Stark, Alexander -- Vilella, Albert J -- Wen, Jiayu -- Xie, Xiaohui -- Zody, Michael C -- Broad Institute Sequencing Platform and Whole Genome Assembly Team -- Baldwin, Jen -- Bloom, Toby -- Chin, Chee Whye -- Heiman, Dave -- Nicol, Robert -- Nusbaum, Chad -- Young, Sarah -- Wilkinson, Jane -- Worley, Kim C -- Kovar, Christie L -- Muzny, Donna M -- Gibbs, Richard A -- Baylor College of Medicine Human Genome Sequencing Center Sequencing Team -- Cree, Andrew -- Dihn, Huyen H -- Fowler, Gerald -- Jhangiani, Shalili -- Joshi, Vandita -- Lee, Sandra -- Lewis, Lora R -- Nazareth, Lynne V -- Okwuonu, Geoffrey -- Santibanez, Jireh -- Warren, Wesley C -- Mardis, Elaine R -- Weinstock, George M -- Wilson, Richard K -- Genome Institute at Washington University -- Delehaunty, Kim -- Dooling, David -- Fronik, Catrina -- Fulton, Lucinda -- Fulton, Bob -- Graves, Tina -- Minx, Patrick -- Sodergren, Erica -- Birney, Ewan -- Margulies, Elliott H -- Herrero, Javier -- Green, Eric D -- Haussler, David -- Siepel, Adam -- Goldman, Nick -- Pollard, Katherine S -- Pedersen, Jakob S -- Lander, Eric S -- Kellis, Manolis -- 095908/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- GM82901/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG003474/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HG004037/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003067/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003067-09/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG003273/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2011 Oct 12;478(7370):476-82. doi: 10.1038/nature10530.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Broad Institute of Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 7 Cambridge Center, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142, USA. kersli@broadinstitute.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21993624" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

Beschreibung: Cichlid fishes are famous for large, diverse and replicated adaptive radiations in the Great Lakes of East Africa. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying cichlid phenotypic diversity, we sequenced the genomes and transcriptomes of five lineages of African cichlids: the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), an ancestral lineage with low diversity; and four members of the East African lineage: Neolamprologus brichardi/pulcher (older radiation, Lake Tanganyika), Metriaclima zebra (recent radiation, Lake Malawi), Pundamilia nyererei (very recent radiation, Lake Victoria), and Astatotilapia burtoni (riverine species around Lake Tanganyika). We found an excess of gene duplications in the East African lineage compared to tilapia and other teleosts, an abundance of non-coding element divergence, accelerated coding sequence evolution, expression divergence associated with transposable element insertions, and regulation by novel microRNAs. In addition, we analysed sequence data from sixty individuals representing six closely related species from Lake Victoria, and show genome-wide diversifying selection on coding and regulatory variants, some of which were recruited from ancient polymorphisms. We conclude that a number of molecular mechanisms shaped East African cichlid genomes, and that amassing of standing variation during periods of relaxed purifying selection may have been important in facilitating subsequent evolutionary diversification.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4353498/" 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/PMC4353498/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brawand, David -- Wagner, Catherine E -- Li, Yang I -- Malinsky, Milan -- Keller, Irene -- Fan, Shaohua -- Simakov, Oleg -- Ng, Alvin Y -- Lim, Zhi Wei -- Bezault, Etienne -- Turner-Maier, Jason -- Johnson, Jeremy -- Alcazar, Rosa -- Noh, Hyun Ji -- Russell, Pamela -- Aken, Bronwen -- Alfoldi, Jessica -- Amemiya, Chris -- Azzouzi, Naoual -- Baroiller, Jean-Francois -- Barloy-Hubler, Frederique -- Berlin, Aaron -- Bloomquist, Ryan -- Carleton, Karen L -- Conte, Matthew A -- D'Cotta, Helena -- Eshel, Orly -- Gaffney, Leslie -- Galibert, Francis -- Gante, Hugo F -- Gnerre, Sante -- Greuter, Lucie -- Guyon, Richard -- Haddad, Natalie S -- Haerty, Wilfried -- Harris, Rayna M -- Hofmann, Hans A -- Hourlier, Thibaut -- Hulata, Gideon -- Jaffe, David B -- Lara, Marcia -- Lee, Alison P -- MacCallum, Iain -- Mwaiko, Salome -- Nikaido, Masato -- Nishihara, Hidenori -- Ozouf-Costaz, Catherine -- Penman, David J -- Przybylski, Dariusz -- Rakotomanga, Michaelle -- Renn, Suzy C P -- Ribeiro, Filipe J -- Ron, Micha -- Salzburger, Walter -- Sanchez-Pulido, Luis -- Santos, M Emilia -- Searle, Steve -- Sharpe, Ted -- Swofford, Ross -- Tan, Frederick J -- Williams, Louise -- Young, Sarah -- Yin, Shuangye -- Okada, Norihiro -- Kocher, Thomas D -- Miska, Eric A -- Lander, Eric S -- Venkatesh, Byrappa -- Fernald, Russell D -- Meyer, Axel -- Ponting, Chris P -- Streelman, J Todd -- Lindblad-Toh, Kerstin -- Seehausen, Ole -- Di Palma, Federica -- 2R01DE019637-04/DE/NIDCR NIH HHS/ -- F30 DE023013/DE/NIDCR NIH HHS/ -- MC_U137761446/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- R01 DE019637/DE/NIDCR NIH HHS/ -- R01 NS034950/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- U54 HG002045/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2014 Sep 18;513(7518):375-81. doi: 10.1038/nature13726.

Beschreibung: We sequenced and annotated the genome of the filamentous fungus Fusarium graminearum, a major pathogen of cultivated cereals. Very few repetitive sequences were detected, and the process of repeat-induced point mutation, in which duplicated sequences are subject to extensive mutation, may partially account for the reduced repeat content and apparent low number of paralogous (ancestrally duplicated) genes. A second strain of F. graminearum contained more than 10,000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, which were frequently located near telomeres and within other discrete chromosomal segments. Many highly polymorphic regions contained sets of genes implicated in plant-fungus interactions and were unusually divergent, with higher rates of recombination. These regions of genome innovation may result from selection due to interactions of F. graminearum with its plant hosts.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cuomo, Christina A -- Guldener, Ulrich -- Xu, Jin-Rong -- Trail, Frances -- Turgeon, B Gillian -- Di Pietro, Antonio -- Walton, Jonathan D -- Ma, Li-Jun -- Baker, Scott E -- Rep, Martijn -- Adam, Gerhard -- Antoniw, John -- Baldwin, Thomas -- Calvo, Sarah -- Chang, Yueh-Long -- Decaprio, David -- Gale, Liane R -- Gnerre, Sante -- Goswami, Rubella S -- Hammond-Kosack, Kim -- Harris, Linda J -- Hilburn, Karen -- Kennell, John C -- Kroken, Scott -- Magnuson, Jon K -- Mannhaupt, Gertrud -- Mauceli, Evan -- Mewes, Hans-Werner -- Mitterbauer, Rudolf -- Muehlbauer, Gary -- Munsterkotter, Martin -- Nelson, David -- O'donnell, Kerry -- Ouellet, Therese -- Qi, Weihong -- Quesneville, Hadi -- Roncero, M Isabel G -- Seong, Kye-Yong -- Tetko, Igor V -- Urban, Martin -- Waalwijk, Cees -- Ward, Todd J -- Yao, Jiqiang -- Birren, Bruce W -- Kistler, H Corby -- U54 HG003067/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Sep 7;317(5843):1400-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Broad Institute of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Cambridge, MA 02142, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17823352" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
