PMID: 27338614
Background: Infectious disease involving multiple genetically distinct populations of pathogens is frequently concurrent, but difficult to detect or describe with current routine methodology. Cryptosporidium sp. is a widespread gastrointestinal protozoan...

PLoS Negl Trop Dis
. 2016 Jan;
10(1):e0004326.
PMID: 26730948
Background: The genome of Leishmania major harbours a comparably high proportion of genes of prokaryote origin, acquired by lateral gene transfer (LGT). Some of these are present in closely related...

. 2015 Aug;
118:25-30.
PMID: 26284963
Contamination of microbiological and cell cultures is a major problem in many scientific and clinical laboratories as well as bioproduct manufacturers worldwide. In the current study we established a rapid...

Curr Opin Microbiol
. 2014 Dec;
23:155-62.
PMID: 25483352
Our knowledge of the extent and functional impact of lateral gene transfer (LGT) from prokaryotes to eukaryotes, outside of endosymbiosis, is still rather limited. Here we review the recent literature,...

PMID: 24898731
Background: Lateral Gene Transfer (LGT) has recently gained recognition as an important contributor to some eukaryote proteomes, but the mechanisms of acquisition and fixation in eukaryotic genomes are still uncertain....

. 2013 Feb;
14(2):R19.
PMID: 23442822
Background: The influence of lateral gene transfer on gene origins and biology in eukaryotes is poorly understood compared with those of prokaryotes. A number of independent investigations focusing on specific...
