Abstract

In this study, we conduct an in-depth analysis of annexin proteins from a diverse range of invertebrate taxa, including the major groups that contain the parasites and vector organisms that are harmful to humans and domestic animals. Using structure-based amino acid sequence alignments and phylogenetic analyses, we present a classification for this protein group and assign names to sequences with ambiguous annotations in public databases. Our analyses reveal six distinct annexin clades, and the mapping of genes encoding annexins to the genome of the human blood fluke Schistosoma mansoni supports the hypothesis of gene duplication as a major evolutionary event in annexin genesis. This study illuminates annexin diversity from a novel perspective using contemporary phylogenetic hypotheses of eukaryote evolution, and will aid the consolidation of annexin protein identities in public databases and provide a foundation for future functional analysis and characterisation of these proteins in parasites of socioeconomic importance.

  • Annexins have a patchy phylogenetic distribution in eukaryotes, with homologs detected in genomes of animals (group A and B), fungi (group C), plants (group D), and some protists of the Excavata and SAR supergroups (group E).

    “The annexins have a patchy phylogenetic distribution in eukaryotes, but homologs have been detected in the genomes of animals (group A and B), fungi (group C), plants (group D), and some protists of the Excavata and SAR supergroups (group E) (3).”

    From Comparative Cell Biology and Evolution of Annexins in Diplomonads (2016) · cites this paper as [3]

    The Discussion reports annexins in animals, fungi, plants, Excavata, and some SAR lineages, consistent with a patchy distribution. It identifies Group E annexins in excavates but says SAR annexins are not yet categorised, so the claim’s assignment of SAR homologs to Group E is not supported. (LLM, conf=0.90)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
