| Abstract |
Two-component systems (TCSs) are widely distributed cell signaling pathways used by both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms to cope with a wide range of environmental cues. In fungi, TCS signaling routes, that mediate perception of stimuli, correspond to a multi-step phosphorelay between three protein families including hybrid histidine kinases (HHK), histidine phosphotransfer proteins (HPt) and response regulators (RR). The best known of these fungal transduction pathways remains the Sln1(HHK)-Ypd1(HPt)-Ssk1(RR) system that governs the high-osmolarity glycerol (HOG) mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway for osmo-adaptation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although recent advances have provided a preliminary overview of the distribution of TCS proteins in the kingdom Fungi, underlying mechanisms that drive the remarkable diversity among HHKs and other TCS proteins in different fungal lineages remain unclear. More precisely, evolutionary paths that led to the appearance, transfer, duplication, and loss of the corresponding TCS genes in fungi have never been hitherto addressed. In the present study, we were particularly interested in studying the distribution of TCS modules across the so-called "budding yeasts clade" (Saccharomycotina) by interrogating the genome of 82 species. With the exception of the emergence of an additional RR (named Srr1) in the fungal CTG clade, TCS proteins Ypd1 (HPt), Ssk1 (RR), Skn7 (RR), and Rim15 (RR) are well conserved within the Saccharomycotina. Surprisingly, some species from the basal lineages, especially Lipomyces starkeyi, harbor several filamentous-type HHKs that appear as relict genes that have been likely retained from a common ancestor of Saccharomycotina. Overall, this analysis revealed a progressive diminution of the initial pool of HHK-encoding genes during Saccharomycotina yeast evolution. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 January 2019.
All research outputs
#18,270,226
of 23,498,099 outputs
Outputs from Current Genetics
#933
of 1,209 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#310,435
of 442,640 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Genetics
#14
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,498,099 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,209 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,640 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 29th percentile – i.e., 29% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
