DALI shines a light on remote homologs: One hundred discoveries

Liisa Holm et al.

Summary: Structural comparison can detect remote homology missed by sequence comparison. The DALI web server offers structural analysis tools such as database searches, interactive visualization, and 3D structure alignment. In this study, we used DALI to mine the AlphaFold Database and discovered 100 previously unreported remote homologous relationships. The findings provided insights into protein families and allowed for the generation of functional hypotheses for further exploration in structural biology studies.

DPAM: A domain parser for AlphaFold models

Jing Zhang et al.

Summary: The recent breakthroughs in structure prediction, such as AlphaFold, have revolutionized the field of structural biology by achieving near-atomic accuracy. The AlphaFold Database provides a vast collection of high-accuracy models that will greatly impact protein science in the future. However, classifying the large number of predicted structures poses a challenge to the current structure classifications, and better computational tools are needed. We present DPAM, a Domain Parser for AlphaFold Models, which can automatically recognize and assign boundaries for domains in AlphaFold models, outperforming existing methods.

Prediction of effector protein structures from fungal phytopathogens enables evolutionary analyses

Kyungyong Seong et al.

Summary: Understanding the evolution of pathogen effectors is crucial, and this study models the structures of thousands of secreted proteins from various fungal phytopathogens. The researchers identify expanded effector families and common folds among these pathogens, as well as new classes of effector families. They also find evidence that many effector families may have originated from ancestral folds. Overall, this study uncovers diverse mechanisms of effector evolution and highlights the importance of divergent evolution in shaping effector diversity.

Fast and accurate protein structure search with Foldseek

Michel van Kempen et al.

Summary: Foldseek aligns the structure of a query protein against a database by representing the tertiary amino acid interactions as sequences over a structural alphabet. It improves computation time by four to five orders of magnitude, with sensitivities of 86%, 88%, and 133% compared to Dali, TM-align, and CE, respectively. Foldseek significantly speeds up protein structural search.

Exaptation of Inactivated Host Enzymes for Structural Roles in Orthopoxviruses and Novel Folds of Virus Proteins Revealed by Protein Structure Modeling

Pascal Mutz et al.

Summary: Protein structures are more conserved in evolution than amino acid sequences, making comparative structural analysis important for tracing the origins of rapidly evolving viral proteins. By using AlphaFold2, the structures of orthopoxvirus proteins were predicted, revealing the exaptation of host enzymes for nonenzymatic roles in virus reproduction. This study highlights the unique structural folds of many viral proteins.

Systematic evaluation of horizontal gene transfer between eukaryotes and viruses

Nicholas A. T. Irwin et al.

Summary: This study systematically characterized viral-eukaryotic gene exchange, identifying thousands of transfers and revealing their frequency, taxonomic distribution, and predicted functions. The findings highlight the impact of virus-host interactions on evolutionary changes, as well as common strategies employed by viruses to manipulate hosts, such as metabolic reprogramming, proteolytic degradation, and extracellular modification. Additionally, the study implicates genetic exchange in the early evolution and diversification of eukaryotes, particularly through viral-derived glycosyltransferases impacting a wide range of structures.

A family of unusual immunoglobulin superfamily genes in an invertebrate histocompatibility complex

Aidan L. Huene et al.

Summary: Most colonial marine invertebrates have the ability to distinguish between themselves and conspecifics, known as allorecognition. In the cnidarian Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus, allorecognition is controlled by at least two genes, Allorecognition 1 (Alr1) and Allorecognition 2 (Alr2), which encode highly polymorphic cell-surface proteins. These proteins are members of the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF), with V-set and I-set Ig domains unlike any previously identified in animals. The discovery of these genes expands our understanding of invertebrate histocompatibility.

Poxviruses capture host genes by LINE-1 retrotransposition

Sarah M. Fixsen et al.

Summary: Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is a major source of genetic variation, with many viruses acquiring crucial genes through gene transfer from hosts. This study reveals the central role of Long Interspersed Nuclear Element-1 retrotransposition in HGT to virus genomes, allowing rapid duplication of captured host genes to enhance virus adaptation.

Gorka Lasso et al.

Summary: This study reveals that viruses widely employ molecular mimicry as a strategy, with over 70% of viral mimics unable to be discerned through protein sequence alone. The manner and degree to which viruses exploit molecular mimicry vary by genome size and nucleic acid type, with coronaviruses mimicking 158 human proteins providing clues about pathogenesis.

Ancient Gene Capture and Recent Gene Loss Shape the Evolution of Orthopoxvirus-Host Interaction Genes

Tatiana G. Senkevich et al.

Summary: The survival of viruses relies on their ability to resist host defenses and certain genes play a crucial role in this process. Poxviruses, like Orthopoxviruses (ORPV), have a significant number of genes dedicated to counteracting host immunity. Through evolution, ORPV acquired accessory genes in three major waves, leading to gene duplication and the formation of gene families. Interestingly, most accessory genes were lost during ORPV evolution, suggesting a variety of functional interactions within this virus family.
