The MSDIN family in amanitin-producing mushrooms and evolution of the prolyl oligopeptidase genes by Hong Luo, Qing Cai, Yunjiao Lüli, Xuan Li, Rohita Sinha, Heather E. Hallen-Adams, Zhu L. Yang

“…Prolyl oligopeptidase B (POPB), a key enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway, was used in phylogenetic reconstruction to infer the evolutionary history of the genes. Phylogenies of POPB and POPA based on both coding and amino acid sequences showed very different results: while POPA genes clearly reflected the phylogeny of the host species, POPB did not; strikingly, it formed a wellsupported monophyletic clade, despite that the species belong to different genera in disjunct families. …”

Fingerprints of surface flows on solid substrates ablated by phase change: from laboratory experiments to planetary landscapes by Carpy, Sabrina, Berhanu, Michael, Chaigne, Martin, Courrech du Pont, Sylvain

“…The scale of these landscapes contrasts with the scale of the physical mechanisms that govern their evolutionary dynamics. Indeed, it is the typical size of atmospheric boundary layers or meltwater/vapor/solute films that constrain the heat/concentration transfer at the phase change/dissolution interface, and hence the rate of solid ablation. …”
