1 Annotation and Nomenclature: A Zebrafish Example Ingo Braasch, Julian Catchen and John Postlethwait

2 Annotation and Nomenclature: An Example: Zebrafish The goal Solutions

3 Annotation and Nomenclature: An Example: Zebrafish The goal "Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution" Theodosius Dobzhansky Amer Biol Teach (1973) 35: Nomenclature should match evolutionary origins Solutions

4 The goal "Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution" Theodosius Dobzhansky Amer Biol Teach (1973) 35: Nomenclature should match evolutionary origins Gene names should connect fish genes to the human genome Genome duplication Gene losses

5 Annotation and Nomenclature: An Example: Zebrafish The goal "Nothing in Biology Makes Sense Except in the Light of Evolution" Theodosius Dobzhansky Amer Biol Teach (1973) 35: Genome duplication Gene losses Solutions Trees + conserved syntenies

6 Genome duplication Gene losses A. No gene loss g R1 g1 g2 Ohnologs: paralogs from genome duplication Susumu Ohno

7 Genome duplication Gene losses speciation S1 R2 g1a g1b g2a g2b A. No gene loss g R1 g1 S2 G1 G2 g2 Ohnologs: paralogs from genome duplication Susumu Ohno

8 Genome duplication Gene losses speciation S1 R2 g1a g1b g2a g2b A. No gene loss g R1 g1 S2 G1 G2 g2 g1a R2 g1b speciation S1 B. With gene loss R1 g1 S2 g G2 g2 Ohnologs gone missing

9 Genome duplication Gene losses C. With gene loss R1 speciation R2 S1R2 g1a g1b g speciation S1 g1b B. With gene loss g R1 g1 S2 G2 G2 g2

10 Genome duplication Gene losses speciation S1 R2 g1a g1b B. With gene loss R1 g1 S2 g G2 g2 C. With gene loss R1 speciation R2 g1a S1 g g1b G2 erroneously appears as an S2 G2 ortholog of its duplicated paralog g1. Thus, the entire region must be used to determine origins and hence nomenclature. => conserved syntenies
