  • These data show that predicted genes tend to have a higher rate of amino-acid substitution than known genes in the genus Drosophila . This trend is significant for the three most closely related pairwise comparisons ( D. melanogaster versus D. erecta, D. pseudoobscura or D. willistoni ) but non-significant in the comparison involving the most distantly related species ( D. melanogaster versus D. littoralis ). No significant differences were detected in the rates of silent site substitution between known and predicted genes in any pairwise comparison, although predicted genes in D. pseudoobscura, D. willistoni and

  • However, beyond these obvious aspects of topology, and in particular with respect to clustering of distantly related bacteria and archaea, the trees produced with different approaches showed significant differences, which appear to reflect the relative contributions of phenotypic and phylogenetic signals.

  • Another serious complication in structure-based deduction of function is the intrinsic limit on our ability to compare distantly related sequences and to recognize the role of specific residue subsets in multifunctional proteins.

  • Consequently, we looked for evidence of an evolutionary relationship by attempting to find proteins that might be distantly related to the bacterial and eukaryotic GshB proteins and therefore might bridge the sequence gap between them using the Shotgun algorithm [ 44], which was designed to facilitate searches for distant relations between proteins.

  • We did not study the 742 and 1197 spliceosomal introns in the SSU rRNA gene of the distantly related stramenopile , Cymatosira belgica (X85387).
