Ribosomal Protein Cluster Organization in Asgard Archaea
Archaea. 2023 Sep 29;2023:5512414. doi: 10.1155/2023/5512414. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTIt has been proposed that the superphylum of Asgard Archaea may represent a historical link between the Archaea and Eukarya. Following the discovery of the Archaea, it was soon appreciated that archaeal ribosomes were more similar to those of Eukarya rather than Bacteria. Coupled with other eukaryotic-like features, it has been suggested that the Asgard Archaea may be directly linked to eukaryotes. However, the genomes of Bacteria and non-Asgard Archaea generally organize ribosome-related genes into clusters that likely function as opero...
