Evolution

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    An evolutionarily distinct chaperone promotes 20S proteasome α-ring assembly in plants
    Richard S. Marshall, David C. Gemperline, Fionn McLoughlin, Adam J. Book, Kay Hofmann, Richard D. Vierstra
    Journal of Cell Science 2020 133: jcs249862 doi: 10.1242/jcs.249862 Published 3 November 2020

    Highlighted Article: PBAC5 is an evolutionarily distinct chaperone that forms a tripartite complex with PBAC1 and PBAC2 to promote assembly of the 20S proteasome α-ring in Arabidopsis.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    RACK1 evolved species-specific multifunctionality in translational control through sequence plasticity within a loop domain
    Madeline G. Rollins, Sujata Jha, Elizabeth T. Bartom, Derek Walsh
    Journal of Cell Science 2019 132: jcs228908 doi: 10.1242/jcs.228908 Published 19 June 2019

    Highlighted Article: Sequence divergence within a poorly understood loop domain of RACK1 functions to control two distinct aspects of translation in different species.

  • REVIEW
    Understanding eukaryotic chromosome segregation from a comparative biology perspective
    Snezhana Oliferenko
    Journal of Cell Science 2018 131: jcs203653 doi: 10.1242/jcs.203653 Published 20 July 2018

    Summary: This Review discusses eukaryotic chromosome segregation in the light of biological diversity, covering a number of experimental approaches used in comparative biology studies.

  • OPINION
    The triple helix of collagens – an ancient protein structure that enabled animal multicellularity and tissue evolution
    Aaron L. Fidler, Sergei P. Boudko, Antonis Rokas, Billy G. Hudson
    Journal of Cell Science 2018 131: jcs203950 doi: 10.1242/jcs.203950 Published 9 April 2018

    Summary: The triple helix is a protein structure of fundamental importance in building the extracellular matrix that enabled animal multicellularity and tissue evolution.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Lineage-specific proteins essential for endocytosis in trypanosomes
    Paul T. Manna, Samson O. Obado, Cordula Boehm, Catarina Gadelha, Andrej Sali, Brian T. Chait, Michael P. Rout, Mark C. Field
    Journal of Cell Science 2017 130: 1379-1392; doi: 10.1242/jcs.191478

    Summary: Endocytosis is a vital process in most cells, and here we identify important proteins required for this process in trypanosomes. Significantly, these are unique and not present in animals, fungi or plants.

  • COMMENTARY
    The changing view of eukaryogenesis – fossils, cells, lineages and how they all come together
    Joel B. Dacks, Mark C. Field, Roger Buick, Laura Eme, Simonetta Gribaldo, Andrew J. Roger, Céline Brochier-Armanet, Damien P. Devos
    Journal of Cell Science 2016 129: 3695-3703; doi: 10.1242/jcs.178566

    Summary: Eukaryogenesis, the emergence of eukaryotic cells, represents a pivotal evolutionary event. Advances in paleogeology, phylogenetics, cell biology and microbial diversity provide new insights into aspects of eukaryogenesis.

  • COMMENTARY
    LINCing the eukaryotic tree of life – towards a broad evolutionary comparison of nucleocytoplasmic bridging complexes
    Iris Meier
    Journal of Cell Science 2016 129: 3523-3531; doi: 10.1242/jcs.186700

    Summary: A broad evolutionary comparison of eukaryotic nucleocytoplasmic bridging complexes suggests that they might have evolved from protein complexes involved in attaching centrosomes to the nuclear envelope.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Divergence of structural strategies for homophilic E-cadherin binding among bilaterians
    Shigetaka Nishiguchi, Akira Yagi, Nobuaki Sakai, Hiroki Oda
    Journal of Cell Science 2016 129: 3309-3319; doi: 10.1242/jcs.189258

    Summary: Atomic force microscopy imaging revealed that Drosophila E-cadherin has a tightly folded globular structure with multiple domains that contain determinants of homophilic binding.

  • COMMENTARY
    Uses and abuses of macropinocytosis
    Gareth Bloomfield, Robert R. Kay
    Journal of Cell Science 2016 129: 2697-2705; doi: 10.1242/jcs.176149

    Summary: This Commentary provides an evolutionary view of macropinocytosis, while discussing recent breakthroughs in understanding of underlying mechanisms and their subversion by pathogens and tumour cells.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Evolutionarily conserved primary TNF sequences relate to its primitive functions in cell death induction
    Wenshu Lu, Qiongyu Chen, Songmin Ying, Xiaobing Xia, Zhanru Yu, Yuan Lui, George Tranter, Boquan Jin, Chaojun Song, Leonard W. Seymour, Shisong Jiang
    Journal of Cell Science 2016 129: 108-120; doi: 10.1242/jcs.175463

    Summary: By using a series of overlapping human TNF-derived peptides, it is shown that the evolutionarily conserved primary sequences of TNF relate to its primitive role in cell death.
