Origin and evolution of spliceosomal introns
Evolution of exon-intron structure of eukaryotic genes has been a matter of long-standing,
intensive debate. The introns-early concept, later rebranded 'introns first'held that protein …

On the origin of family 1 plant glycosyltransferases
The phylogeny of highly divergent multigene families is often difficult to validate but can be
substantiated by inclusion of data outside of the phylogeny, such as signature motifs, intron …

Evolutionary fates and origins of U12-type introns
CB Burge, RA Padgett, PA Sharp - Molecular cell, 1998 - cell.com
Abstract U2-type and U12-type introns are spliced by distinct spliceosomes in eukaryotic
nuclei. A classification method was devised to distinguish these two types of introns based …

Where the minor things are: a pan-eukaryotic survey suggests neutral processes may explain much of minor intron evolution
Spliceosomal introns are gene segments removed from RNA transcripts by
ribonucleoprotein machineries called spliceosomes. In some eukaryotes a second …
