Protist Evolution: Stealing Genes to Gut It Out.

David Moreira1, Purificación López-García2.   

Abstract

The amount and evolutionary impact of horizontal gene transfer in eukaryotes remain contentious issues. A new phylogenomic study suggests that gene transfer from prokaryotes has contributed significantly to the adaptation and metabolic evolution of Blastocystis, the most widespread human gut eukaryotic parasite.
