Article Abstract

A reference collection of COI barcode (650 bp) for the Pacific Society Islands has been constituted for 22 species of Acanthuridae and 16 species of Holocentridae. Divergence between congeneric species was on average 20-fold to 87-fold higher than divergence between conspecific sequences and this set of DNA-identifiers was used to identify 40 larvae of both families. All larvae sequenced could be identified to species using DNA-barcodes. Pools of larvae constitute multi-specific assemblages and no additional species compared to adult reef communities were sampled in larval pools, suggesting that the larval assemblages originated from adult communities on neighboring reefs.

Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are key regulators of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and redox balance. Although intracellular SODs have been extensively studied, growing attention has been directed toward understanding the roles of extracellular SODs in both Dictyostelium and mammalian systems. In Dictyostelium discoideum, SodC is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored enzyme that modulates extracellular superoxide to regulate Ras, PI3K signaling, and cytoskeletal remodeling during directional cell migration.

Distinct codon usage signatures reflecting evolutionary and pathogenic adaptation in the Acinetobacter baumannii complex.

Purpose: This study investigates codon usage and amino acid usage bias in the genus Acinetobacter to uncover the evolutionary forces shaping these patterns and their implications for pathogenicity and biotechnology.

Methods: Codon usage patterns were examined in representative genomes of the genus Acinetobacter using standard codon bias indices, including GC content, relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU), effective number of codons (ENC), and codon adaptation index (CAI). Neutrality and parity plots were employed to evaluate the relative influence of mutational pressure and natural selection on codon preferences.
