	151.	Opinion Back to Bermuda: how is science best served? Deanna M Church, LaDeana W Hillier Genome Biology 2009, 10:105 (24 April 2009) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Two bovine genome assemblies from the same data suggest it is time to revisit the spirit of the Bermuda and Fort Lauderdale agreements.
	152.	Research Evolution of gene fusions: horizontal transfer versus independent events Itai Yanai, Yuri I Wolf, Eugene V Koonin Genome Biology 2002, 3:research0024-research0024.13 (26 April 2002) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary The evolutionary history of gene fusions was studied by phylogenetic analysis. Of the 51 gene fusions studied, 31 were most probably disseminated by cross-kingdom horizontal gene transfer, 14 appeared to have evolved independently in different kingdoms and two were probably inherited from a common ancestor.

	156.	Research A novel family of P-loop NTPases with an unusual phyletic distribution and transmembrane segments inserted within the NTPase domain L Aravind, Lakshminarayan M Iyer, Detlef D Leipe, Eugene V Koonin Genome Biology 2004, 5:R30 (16 April 2004) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary This study characterizes the KAP protein family - a newly identified sub-group of the P-loop NTPases, which have transmembrane helices inserted into the P-loop NTPase domain. Their unusual phyletic distribution suggests KAP proteins were transferred from bacteria to animals by horizontal gene transfer.

	163.	Research Towards understanding the first genome sequence of a crenarchaeon by genome annotation using clusters of orthologous groups of proteins (COGs) Darren A Natale, Uma T Shankavaram, Michael Y Galperin, Yuri I Wolf, L Aravind, Eugene V Koonin Genome Biology 2000, 1:research0009-research0009.19 (6 November 2000) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary The database of Clusters of Orthologous Groups of proteins (COGs) was used to reannotate the genomes of Aeropyrum pernix and Pyrococcus abyssi. A differential genome display approach helps in a systematic investigation of common and distinct features of gene repertoires and in some cases reveals unexpected connections that may be indicative of functional similarities between phylogenetically distant organisms and of lateral gene exchange.

	168.	Research Extensive domain shuffling in transcription regulators of DNA viruses and implications for the origin of fungal APSES transcription factors Lakshminarayan M Iyer, Eugene V Koonin, L Aravind Genome Biology 2002, 3:research0012-research0012.11 (13 February 2002) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary Using computational analysis, the amino-terminal module of the D6R/N1R proteins is shown to define a novel, conserved DNA-binding domain (the KilA-N domain) found in a wide range of proteins of large bacterial and eukaryotic DNA viruses. It is suggested to be homologous to the fungal DNA-binding APSES domain; analysis of these domains points to extensive domain shuffling and lineage-specific gene family expansion within DNA virus genomes.
	169.	Research Quod erat demonstrandum? The mystery of experimental validation of apparently erroneous computational analyses of protein sequences Lakshminarayan M Iyer, L Aravind, Peer Bork, Kay Hofmann, Arcady R Mushegian, Igor B Zhulin, Eugene V Koonin Genome Biology 2001, 2:research0051-research0051.11 (13 November 2001) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary Six cases where application of novel or conventional computational methods for protein sequence and structure analysis led to non-trivial predictions that were subsequently supported by direct experiments were analyzed. On all occasions, the original prediction seemed unjustified, and in at least three cases an alternative, well-supported computational prediction, incompatible with the original one, could be derived.

	172.	Research The GOLD domain, a novel protein module involved in Golgi function and secretion Vivek Anantharaman, L Aravind Genome Biology 2002, 3:research0023-research0023.7 (24 April 2002) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| Editor’s summary Members of the p24 family of proteins have been shown to be components of the coated vesicles that are involved in the transportation of molecules from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex. A sequence-profile analysis method was used to identify a β-strand-rich domain, the GOLD domain, in the p24 proteins and several other proteins with roles in Golgi dynamics and secretion.

	175.	Research Two C or not two C: recurrent disruption of Zn-ribbons, gene duplication, lineage-specific gene loss, and horizontal gene transfer in evolution of bacterial ribosomal proteins Kira S Makarova, Vladimir A Ponomarev, Eugene V Koonin Genome Biology 2001, 2:research0033-research0033.14 (30 August 2001) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Cited on BioMed Central \| F1000 Biology \| Editor’s summary Bacterial genomes were searched for duplications of ribosomal proteins. Of the four ribosomal proteins for which paralogs were detected in several genomes, three come in two distinct versions. One form contains a metal-binding Zn-ribbon while in the second, the metal-chelating residues are completely or partially replaced. Typically, genomes containing paralogous genes for these ribosomal proteins encode both versions. Lineage-specific gene loss and horizontal gene transfer therefore seem to make major contributions to the evolution of bacterial ribosomal proteins.
