Identifying optimal substrate classes of membrane transporters. by Andreas Denger, Volkhard Helms

“…For a dataset containing 98.1% of transporters from S. cerevisiae, the pipeline automatically reduced the number of functional annotations from 287 to 11 GO terms that could be classified with a median pairwise F1 score of 0.87±0.16. For a meta-organism dataset containing 96% of all transport proteins from S. cerevisiae, A. thaliana, E. coli and human, the number of classes was reduced from 695 to 49, with a median F1 score of 0.92±0.10 between pairs of GO terms. …”

A Y-chromosome portrait of the population of Jerba (Tunisia) to elucidate its complex demographic history by Franz Manni, Pascal Leonardi, Étienne Patin, Alain Berrebi, Houssein Khodjet el Khil, Karl Skorecki, Dror Rosengarten, Hassan Rouba, Evelyne Heyer, Marc Fellous

“…We also sampled the Black group living in Jerba but typing ambiguities forced us to exclude it from further analyses.The results suggest a very low degree of genetic differentiation between Jerban Arabs and Berbers, who can be considered genetically, as belonging to the same group. In contrast, pairwise FST measures show that the genetic distances between the Jewish sample and the other ethnic groups are the highest in the island. …”
