Mol Biol Evol
. 2017 Nov;
35(4):984-1002.
PMID: 29149300
Most phylogenetic models assume that the evolutionary process is stationary and reversible. In addition to being biologically improbable, these assumptions also impair inference by generating models under which the likelihood...

. 2017 Oct;
75(5):921-938.
PMID: 29058016
Amino acid transporters are essential components of prokaryote and eukaryote cells, possess distinct physiological functions, and differ markedly in substrate specificity. Amino acid transporters can be both drug targets and...

PMID: 28533395
A root for the archaeal tree is essential for reconstructing the metabolism and ecology of early cells and for testing hypotheses that propose that the eukaryotic nuclear lineage originated from...

Genome Biol Evol
. 2017 Feb;
9(2):480-487.
PMID: 28164241
Plasma membrane-located nucleotide transport proteins (NTTs) underpin the lifestyle of important obligate intracellular bacterial and eukaryotic pathogens by importing energy and nucleotides from infected host cells that the pathogens can...

Freibert S, Goldberg A, Hacker C, Molik S, Dean P, Williams T, et al.
Nat Commun
. 2017 Jan;
8:13932.
PMID: 28051091
Microsporidians are obligate intracellular parasites that have minimized their genome content and sub-cellular structures by reductive evolution. Here, we demonstrate that cristae-deficient mitochondria (mitosomes) of Trachipleistophora hominis are the functional...

PLoS Pathog
. 2016 Nov;
12(11):e1005870.
PMID: 27855212
Microsporidia are strict obligate intracellular parasites that infect a wide range of eukaryotes including humans and economically important fish and insects. Surviving and flourishing inside another eukaryotic cell is a...

Williams T, Nakjang S, Campbell S, Freeman M, Eydal M, Moore K, et al.
Mol Biol Evol
. 2016 May;
33(8):2002-15.
PMID: 27189558
The Microsporidia are a major group of intracellular fungi and important parasites of animals including insects, fish, and immunocompromised humans. Microsporidian genomes have undergone extreme reductive evolution but there are...

PMID: 27170716
The remodelling of organelle function is increasingly appreciated as a central driver of eukaryotic biodiversity and evolution. Kinetoplastids including Trypanosoma and Leishmania have evolved specialized peroxisomes, called glycosomes. Glycosomes uniquely...

PMID: 26589282
Background: Trachipleistophora hominis was isolated from an HIV/AIDS patient and is a member of a highly successful group of obligate intracellular parasites. Methods: Here we have investigated the evolution of...

PMID: 26323766
The root of a phylogenetic tree is fundamental to its biological interpretation, but standard substitution models do not provide any information on its position. Here, we describe two recently developed...
