Classification of Prokaryotes:A Long-Standing Problem
• Traditional taxonomy: too few features• Morphology : spheric, helices, rod-shaped……• Metabolism : photosythesis, N-fixing, desulfurization…
…• Gram staining : positive and negative
• SSU rRNA Tree (Carl Woese et al., 1977):– 16S rRNA: ancient conserved sequences of about 15
00kb– Discovery of the three domains of life: Archaea, Bact
eria and Eucarya– Endosymbiont origin of mitochondria and chloroplast

Our Final Result
• 132 organisms (16A + 110B + 6E)• Input: genome data• Output: phylogenetic tree• No selection of genes, no alignment of sequ
ences, no fine adjustment whatsoever• See the tree first. Story follows.

• Add details to the classification (branchings and groupings)
• More hints on taxonomic revisions

Debate on Lateral Gene Transfer
• Extreme estimate: 17% in E. Coli Limitations of the above approach B. Wang, J. Mol. Evol. 53 (2001) 244• “Phase transition” and “crystalization” of species
(C. Woese 1998)• Lateral transfer within smaller gene pools as an in
novative agent• Composition vector may incorporate LGT within s
mall gene pools

Scoring schemeGap penalty16S rRNA tree was based on sequence alignment
– Problem: sequence alignment cannot be readily applied to complete genomes
– Homology -> alignment– Different genome size, gene content and

Our Motivations:• Develop a molecular phylogeny method that make
s use of complete genomes – no selection of particular genes
• Avoid sequence alignment • Try to reach higher resolution to provide an indepe
ndent comparison with other approaches such as SSU tRNA trees
• Make comparison with bacteriologists’ systematics as reflected in Bergey’s Manual (2001, 2002)
• Our paper accepted by J. Molecular Evolution
Other Whole-Genome Approaches
• Gene content• Presence or absence of COGs• Conserved Gene Pairs• “Information” distances• Domain order in proteins (Ken Nishikawa’s
talk at InCoB2003)• …

} }
K-strings make a composition vector
• DNA sequence vector of dimension 4K
• Protein sequence vector of dimension 20K
• Given a genomic or protein sequence a unique composition vector
• The converse: a vector one or more sequences ?• K big enough -> uniqueness• Connection with the number of Eulerian loops in a gra
ph (a separate study available as a preprint at ArXiv:physics/0103028 and from Hao’s webpage)

A Key Improvement:Subtraction of Random Background
• Mutations took place randomly at molecular level
• Selection shaped the direction of evolution• Many neutral mutations remain as random
background• At single amino acid level protein sequences are
quite close to random• Highlighting the role of selection by subtraction

Protein Class vs. Whole Proteome
• Trees based on collection of ribosomal proteins (SSU + LSU): ribosomal proteins are interwoven with rRNA to form functioning complex; results consistent with SSU rRNA trees
• Trees based on collection of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (AARS). Trees based on single AARS were not good. Trees based on all 20 AARSs much better but not as good as that based on rProteins.

Understanding the Subtraction Procedure:Analysis of Extreme Cases in E. coli
• There are 1 343 887 5-strings belonging to 841832 different types.
• Maximal count before subtraction: 58 for the 5-peptide GKSTL. 58 reduces to 0.646 after subtr
action.• Maximal component after subtraction: 197 for the
5-peptide HAMSC. The number 197 came from a single count 1 before the subtraction.
GKSTL: how 58 reduces to 0.646?
• #(GKST)=113• #(KSTL)=77• #(KST)=247
• Markov prediction: 113*77/247=35.23
• Final result: (58-35.23)/35.23=0.646
HAMSC: how 1 grows to 197?
• #(HAMS)=1• #(AMSC)=1• #(AMS)=198
• Markov prediction: 1*1/198=1/198
• Final result: (1-1/198)/(1/198)=197
6121 Exact Matches of GKSTLIn PIR Rel.1.26 with >1.2 Mil Proteins
• These 6121 matches came from a diverse taxonomic assortment from virus to bacteria to fungi to plants and animals including human being
• In the parlance of classic cladistics GKSTL contributes to plesiomorphic characters that should be eliminated in a strict phylogeny
• The subtraction procedure did the job.
15 Exact Matches of HAMSC:In PIR Rel.1.26 with >1.2 Mil Proteins
• 1 match from Eukaryotic protein• 4 matches (the same protein) from virus• 10 matches from prokaryotes, among which 3 from Shegella and E. coli (HAMSCAPDKE) 3 from Samonella (HAMSCAPERD)
HAMSC is characteristic for prokaryotesHAMSCA is specific for enterobacteria
Stable Topology of the Tree• K=1: makes some sense!• K=2,3,4: topology gradually converges• K=5 and K=6: present calculation• K=7 and more: too high resolution; star-
tree or bush expected
Statistical Test of the Tree
• Bootstrap versus Jack knife• Bootstrap in sequence alignments• “Bootstrap” by random selections from the AA-sequence pool• A time consuming job• 180 bootstraps for 72 species
About 70% genes for
every species were selected
in one bootstrap
“K-string Picture” of Evolution
• K=5 ->3 200 000 points in space of 5-strings• K=6 ->64 000 000 points• In the primordial soup: short polypeptides of
a limited assortment• Evolution by growth, fusion, mutation leads
to diffusion in the string space• String space not saturated yet
The Problem of Higher Taxa
• 1974: Bacteria as a separate kingdom• 1994: Archaea and Bacetria as two domains
• The relation of higher taxa?
Summary As composition vectors do not depend on genome size a
nd gene content. The use of whole genome data is straightforward
Data independent on that of 16S rRNA Method different from that based on SSU rRNA Results agree with SSU rRNA trees and the Bergey’s Ma
nual Hint on groupings of higher taxa A method without “free parameters”: data in, tree out Possibility of an automatic and objective classification to
ol for prokaryotes
Conclusion: The Tree of Life is saved!
There is phylogenetic information in the prokaryotic proteomes.
Time to work on molecular definition of taxa.
Thank you!

Early expectation from genome data
• Was there intensive lateral gene transfer?• Gene tree cannot be equated to the real tree
of life• Genome data: 106 to 107
• Difficult to align whole genome data
• Prokaryote and Eukaryote• Three Kingdoms( Carl Woese ,16S rRNA )
– Archaea– Eubacteria– Eukarya
• Five Kingdoms ( Lynn Margulis )– Bacteria (Archaea, Eubacteria)– Protoctista– Animalia– Fungi– Plantae
Common features of Archaea and Eubacteria: Small cells, no nucleus membrane, ring DNA, no CAP at 5’end of mRNA, presence of S-D segments Many proteins associated with replication, transcri
ption, and translation are common in Archaea and Eukaryote
Features of Archaea: lack of some enzymes, insensitive to some antibiotics
