Thus, we identified two previously unnoticed families of FtsZ-like proteins; the first, widespread family was denoted FtsZ-like 1 (FtsZl1) and the second, proteobacterial family FtsZ-like 2 (FtsZl2).
Examination of the multiple amino acid sequence alignments, between PDZ/LIM family proteins of different species revealed a novel motif, specific for the ALP subfamily members, which we denoted ALP-like motif (AM) (Fig. 3).
In the T. pseudonana genome Armbrust and collaborators identified some Ty1/copia and Ty3/gypsy-like elements, a family of RTE-like non-LTR retrotransposons, Mutator-like (here denoted as TpMuDR1) and Harbinger-like DNA transposons, as well as some unknown unclassified repeated sequences [ 15, 17].
Negative value of C 2 denotes saddle-like surface.
The results of this analysis reveal an apparent paradox of prokaryote evolution: Although the tree-like evolution is the most pronounced single trend in the FOL, quantitatively, evolution of prokaryotes is dominated by the combination of other processes, such as HGT and lineage-specific gene loss, which we collectively denote net-like evolution (figs. 1 and 2).
In our previous work, we developed a hydrothermal synthesis of the porous hematite with a pod-like morphology or short-aspect-ratio ellipsoidal shape (denoted as 'pod-like' thereafter) in the presence of H3BO3[44].
The novel extrachromosomal DNA-containing virus-like element denoted PEVE (Planarian Extrachromosomal Virus-like Element) was identified in one planarian strain.
Actually, some of the previous models already denoted long path-like reply trees as 'skinny' in Kumar et al. [83] or 'focused' in Backstrom et al. [86], and large star-like trees as 'bushy' in Kumar et al. [83] or 'expansionary' Backstrom et al. [86].
Multi-Class Oblique Decision Trees (MC-ODT) are build using OVA (for small number of classes, i.e. (c le 3)) and a DB2-like method (for, i.e. (c > 3)) to perform the binary multivariate splits with a proximal SVM (denoted OVA-DB2-like approach in the later).
To compare, we also studied the transcript levels of two diatom chlorophyll/carotenoid-binding LHC proteins, fucoxanthin/chlorophyll a/c-binding protein B (FCPB) and a protein denoted as ELIP-like, which shares structural similarity to early light-inducible proteins (ELIPs).
