The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP-II), previously described by Maidak et al. [Nucleic Acids Res. (2000), 28, 173–174], continued during the past year to add new rRNA sequences to the aligned data...

Post-transcriptional modification in archaeal tRNAs: identities and phylogenetic relations of nucleotides from mesophilic and hyperthermophilic Methanococcales

McCloskey, James A., Graham, David E., Zhou, Shaolian, Crain, Pamela F., Ibba, Michael, Konisky, Jordan, ...

Post-transcriptional modifications in archaeal RNA are known to be phylogenetically distinct but relatively little is known of tRNA from the Methanococci, a lineage of methanogenic marine euryarchaea...

Aminoacyl-tRNA Synthetases, the Genetic Code, and the Evolutionary Process

Woese, Carl R., Olsen, Gary J., Ibba, Michael, Söll, Dieter

The aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (AARSs) and their relationship to the genetic code are examined from the evolutionary perspective. Despite a loose correlation between codon assignments and AARS...

The RDP (Ribosomal Database Project) continues

Maidak, Bonnie L., Cole, James R., Lilburn, Timothy G., Parker Jr, Charles T., Saxman, Paul R., Stredwick, Jason M., ...

The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP-II), previously described by Maidak et al., continued during the past year to add new rRNA sequences to the aligned data and to improve the analysis commands....

The Ribosomal Database Project

Olsen, Gary J., Overbeek, Ross, Larsen, Niels, Marsh, Terry L., McCaughey, Michael J., Maciukenas, Michael A., ...

The Ribosomal Database Project (RDP) compiles ribosomal sequences and related data, and redistributes them in aligned and phylogenetically ordered form to its user community. It also offers various...

Evolution of Eukaryotic Transcription: Insights From the Genome of Giardia lamblia

Best, Aaron A., Morrison, Hilary G., McArthur, Andrew G., Sogin, Mitchell L., Olsen, Gary J.

The Giardia lamblia genome sequencing project affords us a unique opportunity to conduct comparative analyses of core cellular systems between early and late-diverging eukaryotes on a genome-wide...
