By the same sets of criteria described above for studying the difference between wild-type and actA infections, we examined whether there were any genes reproducibly induced by cytoplasmic bacteria (wild-type or actA ) but not by the avirulent organism ( prfA ). In this dataset, no genes passed these criteria during the first 4 hours of infection.
In a comparative analysis of the genomes of Drosophila, C. elegans and S. cerevisiae the number of proteins for each of the 200 most frequently occurring protein domains was identified for each organism [ 7].
Previous studies from our laboratory have consistently demonstrated loss of the SpeB phenotype in S. pyogenes isolates injected in a skin air sac and recovered from the organs of lethally infected mice [ 10 16 ] . This selection was not associated with loss of β-hemolysis but was associated with over-expression of M and M-related proteins, which in turn are predictive of the invasive potential of the organism in a skin infection model [ 16 ] . Based on the phenotypic characteristics of the kidney-recovered variant (β-hemolytic positive, M and M-related protein positive and SpeB negative) we predicted that this variant would be as virulent or more virulent than the wild type organism in the mouse skin infection model.
Our time estimate for the divergence of an early-branching eukaryote ( Giardia ) that lacks mitochondria, 2.2 Ga, suggests that it is a primary and not secondary amitochondriate organism.
