Genome Announc . 2017 Oct; 5(43). PMID: 29074648
The halotolerant alga is a model for stress tolerance and is used commercially for production of beta-carotene (=pro-vitamin A). The presented draft genome of the genuine strain CCAP19/18 will allow...

Cell . 2011 Dec; 147(7):1446-57. PMID: 22196724
The capture and utilization of light is an exquisitely evolved process. The single-component microbial opsins, although more limited than multicomponent cascades in processing, display unparalleled compactness and speed. Recent advances...

Gollery M, Harper J, Cushman J, Mittler T, Mittler R
Trends Plant Sci . 2007 Oct; 12(11):492-496. PMID: 17928258
Over a quarter of all eukaryotic genes encode proteins with obscure features that lack currently defined motifs or domains (POFs). Interestingly, most of the differences in gene repertoire among species...

Genome Biol . 2006 Jul; 7(7):R57. PMID: 16859532
Background: Proteins with obscure features (POFs), which lack currently defined motifs or domains, represent between 18% and 38% of a typical eukaryotic proteome. To evaluate the contribution of this class...
