Stepwise neofunctionalization of the NF-κB family member c-Rel during vertebrate evolution

A. E. Daly, A. B. Chang, P. Purbey, K. J. Williams, G. Yeh, S. Li, S. D. Pope, B. Venkatesh, B. D. Redelings, S. Li, K. Nguyen, J. Rodriguez, K. Jorgensen, T. Siggers, L. Chen, S. T. Smale

The paper shows c-Rel, an NF-κB family member, evolved unique DNA-binding properties in mammals, enhancing its ability to regulate Il12b and support immune complexity.

Oxygenation properties of hemoglobin and the evolutionary origins of isoform multiplicity in an amphibious air-breathing fish, the blue-spotted mudskipper (Boleophthalmus pectinirostris)

J. Storz, C. Natarajan, M. Grouleff, M. Vandewege, F. Hoffmann, X. You, B. Venkatesh, A. Fago

This study examines hemoglobin oxygenation properties and genomic origins of isoform multiplicity in the blue-spotted mudskipper, finding similar oxygen transport traits to hypoxia-tolerant fish despite functional isoform diversity.

Transcriptional Activation of Elephant Shark Mineralocorticoid Receptor by Corticosteroids, Progestins and Spironolactone

Y. Katsu, S. Kohno, K. Oka, X. Lin, S. Otake, N. E. Pillai, W. Takagi, S. Hyodo, B. Venkatesh, M. E. Baker

The paper analyzes the activation of elephant shark mineralocorticoid receptor by corticosteroids and progesterone, finding that aldosterone is absent in cartilaginous fishes and progesterone activates shark MR but not human MR.
