GCN5 acetyltransferase in cellular energetic and metabolic processes

Beste Mutlu et al.

Summary: GCN5, encoded by the mammalian gene Kat2a, is a histone acetyltransferase that plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression programs in response to cellular metabolic and energetic states. It functions as a nutrient sensor, linking histone acetylation to transcriptional activation, and also plays a significant role in energy metabolism by acetylating proteins like PGC-1 alpha.

Plastid phylogenomic insights into relationships of all flowering plant families

Hong-Tao Li et al.

Summary: The study compiled the largest dataset of angiosperm plastomes to date, resulting in a phylogenetic tree that is largely congruent with previous plastid genomic analyses but with greater clade support. The research provided strong resolution for many interordinal and interfamilial relationships within core eudicots, but relationships among the five major clades of Mesangiospermae remain unresolved despite increased sampling.

Arylalkalamine N-acetyltransferase-1 functions on cuticle pigmentation in the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti

Lei Zhang et al.

Summary: Ae. aegypti aaNAT1 primarily functions in cuticular pigmentation and affects blood feeding efficiency and fecundity, with mutant mosquitoes showing roughened exoskeletal surfaces, darker cuticles, and changes in color patterns. The mutation also influences the expression of genes involved in cuticle formation.

Whitefly hijacks a plant detoxification gene that neutralizes plant toxins

Jixing Xia et al.

Summary: Plants produce toxic secondary metabolites to defend themselves, but many plants are still eaten by insects. The whitefly has acquired a gene through horizontal gene transfer that enables it to neutralize plant defenses, enhancing its resistance. This study reveals an evolutionary mechanism where herbivores use the genetic toolkit of host plants to develop resistance to plant defenses.

Horizontal Gene Transfer and Gene Duplication of β-Fructofuranosidase Confer Lepidopteran Insects Metabolic Benefits

Xiangping Dai et al.

Summary: The study conducted a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of insect beta-fructofuranosidase transferred through HGT, identifying posttransfer duplications in Lepidoptera and mutations affecting physiological function in Bombyx mori. These findings indicate that gene transfer enhances the digestive and metabolic adaptation of lepidopteran insects.

Clock-controlled arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (aaNAT) regulates circadian rhythms of locomotor activity in the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana, via melatonin/MT2-like receptor

A. S. M. Kamruzzaman et al.

Summary: Melatonin plays a role in orchestrating daily and seasonal rhythms in organisms, impacting locomotor activity. The enzyme aaNAT is a key regulator of the circadian system in cockroaches, influencing the synchronization of locomotor rhythms. Additionally, the receptor mediating Melatonin function in cockroaches is likely similar to the mammalian MT2, with Melatonin and aaNAT constituting a circadian output pathway for locomotor activity.

The Role of Gene Duplication in the Divergence of Enzyme Function: A Comparative Approach

Alejandro Alvarez-Lugo et al.

Summary: Gene duplication is a crucial process in the emergence of new genes and functions, with a high ratio of paralogs found in certain enzymatic classes among prokaryotes. Around 20-40% of prokaryotic enzymes are estimated to have paralogs, with free-living enzymes showing higher ratios compared to intracellular organisms. Similar genomic and biochemical traits are shared among phylogenetically close phyla and even some unrelated phyla with similar lifestyles, suggesting gene duplication is associated with environmental adaptation.
