Comparative Analysis of Proteomes and Functionomes Provides Insights into Origins of Cellular Diversification

Figure 1

Overview of the comparative proteomics and functionomics methodology. Proteomes and functionomes were scanned for the occurrence and abundance of FSFs and GO terms (i.e., traits). This information was represented in data matrices that were analyzed for trends of trait sharing and traces of vertical and horizontal inheritance. Inferences were drawn regarding superkingdom diversification and were confirmed with previously published phylogenetic studies.
