Archaeal Origin of Eukarya

-From within TACK


sister of lokiarchaeota

Methanogenesis & Archaea

MOST in Euryarchaeota BUT also a group in TACK (Bathyarchaeota)


-methanogenesis NOT in an island LGT unlikely BUT if it did happen then that is evidence that methanogenesis may have been in an island once

Highest Temp Tolerance (Archaea)

Methanopyrus kandleri


84-122*C

Euryarchaeota & Methanogenesis

- complex process found in numerous groups, remnants found in others - may be ancestral


- good niche to fill -> few capable

Euryarchaeota Groups (5)

1. Methanogens





2. ANME-1 : oxidation of methane with sulfate (mutualism with sulfur reducing bacteria - coupling of metabolism in consortium makes process thermodynamically possible)




3. Haloarchaea/Halobacteriales: salt lover, only aerobic euryarchaeota




4. Thermoplasma: thermophile, acidophile, environmental LGT




5. Altiarchaeles: commensal with sulfide oxidizing bacteria

Altiarchaeales

-archaea commensal with sulfur oxidizing bacteria


-hooked appendages -> attach to partner/surfaces => found on space probes, in nature

Haloarchaea Metabolism

- only Euryarechaea that AEROBIC -> use of 02 as TEA required complete restructuring of ETC -> genes to do so linker to bacteria (LGT)




-fermentor with sensory rhodopsin used to move toward sunlight (LGT -> also in bacteria, fungi, etc)

Haloquadratum walsbyi

Euryarchaeaota->Haloarchaea (AEROBIC)


-SQUARE, large cells, lots of vacuoles, 2 day doubling time


-SYNTHROPIC: symbiosis with food sharing -> live in associaton with Salibobacter -> much larger when grown together

Gas Vesicle (Haloquadratum)

Euryachaeota -> Haloarchaeota


- used to regulate buoyancy


-2 genes always in a genomic island


- can be transferred between archaea/bacteria -> LGT likely origin of vaculoe

Environmentally Influence LGT

-seen in Thermoplasma/Sulfolobus (Euryarchaeota/TACK)


- shared genes between 2 spp in the same environment, based on said environment

First Canadian Genome

Sulfolobus

Cannulae

hollow tubes connecting colonies of Pyrodictium abyssii, used to exchange nutrient, possibly DNA

Sulfolobus DNA repair

S = TACK/Crenarchaeota


damage induces pili formation, used to exchange dna

Crenchaeota Shared Chars (3-for spp given)

spp = Sulfolobus, Pyrodictium abyssii


- sulfur oxidizers


- thermophiles


- capabe of forming connection (pilli/cannulae) with neightbors

Eukaryotic Traits of Lokiarchaeota (2)

1. actin-like filaments


2. membrane trafficking

General DPANN Chars

- small genome


MOST parasitic/symbotic, but free living present as well

Nanoarchaeota Host

Ignicoccus hospilatus


- discovered via microscopy as small structure attached to host cell -> novel primers made dna amplification impossible


-co-evolution -> hospilatus has evolved structures to connect with nano

Ichthyspora Stages

1. Traphic: multinucleate with numerous vacuoles


2. Reproductive: spore, flagellated, lobose amoeboid

lobose vs filose

Lobose: fat, wide extensions


Filose: thin extensions

Steps to constructing Gene Phylogenies (4)

1. Choose gene


2. Identify homologs


3. Align sequence


4. Calculate gene tree

OTU

Operational taxonomic unit - terminal nose on phylogenic tree

BLAST

compares your sequence to those in database to find homologs

Sequence Alignment

-algorithm applied based on cost of gap vs benefit of match


B>C then include gap




ALIGNMENT = HYPOTHESIS FOR POTENTIAL HOMOLOG

Masking

- comparison of multiple sequence alignment shows which remain the same (unambiguous) and which change (ambiguous)


-mask = analysis to determine ambiguous vs unambiguous, ambiguous scored as 0 and should be removed

Substitution Matrix

grid showing cost associated with mutating from one to another




Nucleotide: costs symmetrical




Amino Acids: not symmetrical, calculated via differences AND probability of effecting the protein

Distance Matrix vs Oarsimony

Distance: table of evolutionary distance between OTUs, represents dissimilarity




Parsimony = score of events needed to get target sequence




both = exploring tree space

Neighbor Joining Vs Subtree Pruning/Regraphting

NJ: moving close together neighbors, determine prob score, works for small changes




SP/R: moving entire branch/subbranches around tree, probability score, allows for far away optima

Long Branch Attraction

more evolutionary change = higher probability of homoplasy = grouping together when not closely realted

Homoplasy

creation of identical character states by separate evolutionary events

Phylogenetic Congruence

- matching trees tip to tip to see if relationships remain the same



Arbituary root

Rooting a tree by including a species known to have diverged before the common ancestor of everyone else


Arbituary bc it requires prior knowledge of the common ancestor

Concantenated Alignment

- lining up multiple genes to use together


- if same relationship will increase power of tree BUT difference genes tend to have different evolutionary histories leads to an "average" evolutionary history that would not be seen in any of the genes

Xenolog

divergence of homologs after LGT

Positional homology

specific amino acid/nucleotide position in different proteins/genes from a common ancestor
