Recent genomic sequence data demonstrate the abundance of duplicated genes in all surveyed organisms.
So for her graduate studies, she extensively surveyed organisms in Portuguese caves, and for a decade recruited volunteers and other researchers to her cause.
Available genomic data provide substantial evidences for abundance of duplicated genes in all surveyed organisms.
At the same time, the inclusion of physical parameters from the environment, such as temperature, salinity, circulation, waves, sediment properties, can be added in order to define the boundary conditions for surveyed organisms and processes.
The number of encoded protein kinases in free-living eukaryotes ranges from as little as 126 kinases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [ 3] to ~1000 in Arabidopsis thaliana [ 4]. Between these extremes, surveyed organisms include Dictyostelium discoideum with 285 kinases [ 5], the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster with 251, and Homo sapiens with 518 kinases [ 6].
Surveying organism diversity from the surface has been proven to be highly efficient (Grey 2009b) but, when possible, we also surveyed ship hulls and the harbor's walls and bottom by submerging an underwater camera and observing the resulting digital pictures.
Surveys where organisms were organized into groups were scored as having one level of hierarchy (Figure 3A).
We found that the RLEs provided over half of all in vivo inhibitors in five surveyed model organisms.
Naa10, the catalytic subunit of the major eukaryotic NAT, is conserved among all surveyed model organisms from yeast to humans, now including zebrafish.
As over half of in vivo inhibitors are produced by RLEs in five surveyed model organisms, RLEs as a whole can initiate inhibiting regulation and spread flux signals to other enzymes quickly.
