Becerra A, Goldman A
J Mol Evol . 2024 Sep; 92(5):527-529. PMID: 39304551
The early evolution of life spans an extensive period preceding the emergence of the first eukaryotic cell. This epoch, which transpired from 4.5 to 2.5 billion years ago, marked the...

Cottom-Salas W, Becerra A, Lazcano A
J Mol Evol . 2024 Aug; 92(5):647-658. PMID: 39145798
One of the central issues in the understanding of early cellular evolution is the characterisation of the cenancestor. This includes the description of the chemical nature of its genome. The...

Cisneros-Martinez A, Rodriguez-Cruz U, Alcaraz L, Becerra A, Eguiarte L, Souza V
PLoS One . 2024 Feb; 19(2):e0291402. PMID: 38300968
Due to the enormous diversity of non-culturable viruses, new viruses must be characterized using culture-independent techniques. The associated host is an important phenotypic feature that can be inferred from metagenomic...

Alvarez-Lugo A, Becerra A
J Mol Evol . 2022 Dec; 91(1):76-92. PMID: 36580111
The isomerases are a unique enzymatic class of enzymes that carry out a great diversity of chemical reactions at the intramolecular level. This class comprises about 300 members, most of...

Madariaga-Mazon A, Naveja J, Becerra A, Campillo-Balderas J, Hernandez-Morales R, Jacome R, et al.
Comput Struct Biotechnol J . 2022 Sep; 20:5181-5192. PMID: 36097553
The rapid spread and public health impact of the novel SARS-CoV-2 variants that cause COVID-19 continue to produce major global impacts and social distress. Several vaccines were developed in record...

Jacome R, Campillo-Balderas J, Becerra A, Lazcano A
J Mol Evol . 2022 May; 90(3-4):283-295. PMID: 35639164
In the past few years, our understanding of the RNA virosphere has changed dramatically due to the growth and spurt of metagenomics, exponentially increasing the number of RNA viral sequences,...

Estrada A, Suarez-Diaz E, Becerra A
Acta Biotheor . 2022 May; 70(2):15. PMID: 35575816
Reconstructing the genetic traits of the Last Common Ancestor (LCA) and the Tree of Life (TOL) are two examples of the reaches of contemporary molecular phylogenetics. Nevertheless, the whole enterprise...

Becerra A, Munoz-Velasco I, Aguilar-Camara A, Cottom-Salas W, Cruz-Gonzalez A, Vazquez-Salazar A, et al.
Sci Rep . 2022 Jan; 12(1):936. PMID: 35042962
Low complexity regions (LCRs) are protein sequences formed by a set of compositionally biased residues. LCRs are extremely abundant in cellular proteins and have also been reported in viruses, where...

Alvarez-Lugo A, Becerra A
Front Genet . 2021 Aug; 12:641817. PMID: 34335678
Gene duplication is a crucial process involved in the appearance of new genes and functions. It is thought to have played a major role in the growth of enzyme families...
