A Proposal for the Evolution of Cathepsin and Silicatein in Sponges.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Jun 2015

Riesgo Ana, Maldonado Manuel, López-Legentil Susanna, Giribet Gonzalo

Abstract excerpt

Cathepsins are enzymes capable of degrading proteins intracellularly. They occur ubiquitously in opisthokonts, but their potential to provide insight across the evolutionary transition from protists to metazoans remains poorly investigated. Here, we explore the evolution of cathepsins using comparative analyses of transcriptomic datasets, focusing on both, protists (closely related to metazoans), and early...
