    Regulatory and coding sequences of TRNP1 co-evolve with brain size and cortical folding in mammals

    Zane Kliesmete, Lucas Esteban Wange ... Wolfgang Enard
    Combining phylogenetic and functional approaches, it is shown that the protein sequence, the proliferative activity, and a regulatory element of TRNP1 co-evolve with brain size and folding.

    Assembling the Tat protein translocase

    Felicity Alcock, Phillip J Stansfeld ... Ben C Berks
    Evolutionary bioinformatics and experimentation are applied to the components of the Tat protein transport system to elucidate the structure of the membrane-bound receptor complex and to deduce a molecular description for its substrate-triggered activation.

    Uncoupling evolutionary changes in DNA sequence, transcription factor occupancy and enhancer activity

    Pierre Khoueiry, Charles Girardot ... Eileen EM Furlong
    Interspecies comparison of transcription factor occupancy during embryogenesis reveals potential co-operative relationships between factors and uncovers the inherent plasticity of developmental enhancers to overcome divergence in transcription factor occupancy.

    The genetic factors of bilaterian evolution

    Peter Heger, Wen Zheng ... Thomas Wiehe
    Advanced orthology clustering of bilaterian and non-bilaterian sequences identifies 157 bilaterian-specific genes which are linked to key morphological features of this animal group.

    Emergence and diversification of a host-parasite RNA ecosystem through Darwinian evolution

    Taro Furubayashi, Kensuke Ueda ... Norikazu Ichihashi
    In an in vitro RNA replication system, an RNA spontaneously diversifies and continuously evolves through coevolution with parasitic entities.

    Large-scale determination of previously unsolved protein structures using evolutionary information

    Sergey Ovchinnikov, Lisa Kinch ... David Baker
    A new method of protein structure prediction that incorporates residue–residue co-evolution information into the Rosetta structure prediction program was used to develop models for 58 large protein families that had no previous structural information.

    TP53 copy number expansion is associated with the evolution of increased body size and an enhanced DNA damage response in elephants

    Michael Sulak, Lindsey Fong ... Vincent J Lynch
    Elephants escaped enhanced cancer susceptibility by evolving more master tumor suppressor genes.

    The AP-2 complex has a specialized clathrin-independent role in apical endocytosis and polar growth in fungi

    Olga Martzoukou, Sotiris Amillis ... George Diallinas
    In filamentous fungi the AP-2 complex, which in mammals is an adaptor of clathrin-mediated endocytosis, is recruited to specific clathrin-independent apical endocytosis necessary for proper lipid maintenance and polar growth.

    Selections that isolate recombinant mitochondrial genomes in animals

    Hansong Ma, Patrick H O'Farrell
    Recombinant mitochondrial genomes can be selected, traits can be genetically mapped and new genetic combinations can be made.
