CoMR improves mitochondrial proteome reconstruction by integrating multiple evidence sources, achieving better performance than standalone predictors in both model and non-model eukaryotes.

The paper describes a new anaerobic Legionellales symbiont in Anaeramoeba pumila, highlighting its unique metabolic strategies and genomic features.

This study investigates the evolutionary pathways of anaerobic mitochondrial adaptations in breviate protists by analyzing transcriptomes and predicting MRO proteomes across eight species.

Eukfinder is a pipeline that recovers high-quality eukaryotic microbial genomes from metagenomic data, outperforming existing tools in assembling near-complete genomes without a reference.

The paper describes a new genus of anaerobic flagellate, Skoliomonas, found in soda lake environments, and places it phylogenetically within the Metamonada clade.

The paper investigates mitochondrial reduction in free-living metamonads, finding extreme reduction in some species, including loss of mitochondrial functions and pathways.

This study identifies PML and PML-like exonucleases as cytoplasmic suppressors of LINE-1 retrotransposition in jawed vertebrates, showing functional conservation across species.
