An increased knowledge of sites in lower eukaryotes may facilitate the elucidation of its functions.

This study provides new insights into the regulatory role of sRNAs in fungi and other lower eukaryotes.

In contrast to prokaryotes and lower eukaryotes a role for the reversible phosphorylation of histidine residues is just emerging.

We characterize the noxA gene and show that it encodes a member of a novel NADPH oxidase subfamily ubiquitous in lower eukaryotes.

Nonribosomal peptide synthesis is achieved in prokaryotes and lower eukaryotes by the thiotemplate function of large, modular enzyme complexes known collectively as peptide synthetases.

In Escherichia coli, two proteins forming a heterodimeric complex are required for this reaction, but, in plants and lower eukaryotes, a single protein is involved.
