Horizontal gene transfer in cyanobacterial signature genes.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) - 1 Jan 2009

Yerrapragada Shailaja, Siefert Janet L, Fox George E

Abstract excerpt

Comparison of 15 phylogenetically diverse cyanobacterial genomes identified an updated list of 183 signature genes that are widely found in cyanobacteria but absent in non-cyanobacterial species. These signature genes comprise the unique portion of the core cyanobacterial phenotype, and their absence from other lineages implies that if they arose by horizontal gene transfer (HGT), it likely occurred before the...
