  abstract  = {The predicted 80 open reading frames (ORFs) of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) have been intensively studied for decades. Here, we unravel the complete viral transcriptome and translatome during lytic infection with base-pair resolution by computational integration of multi-omics data. We identify a total of 201 transcripts and 284 ORFs including all known and 46 novel large ORFs. This includes a so far unknown ORF in the locus deleted in the FDA-approved oncolytic virus Imlygic. Multiple transcript isoforms expressed from individual gene loci explain translation of the vast majority of ORFs as well as N-terminal extensions (NTEs) and truncations. We show that NTEs with non-canonical start codons govern the subcellular protein localization and packaging of key viral regulators and structural proteins. We extend the current nomenclature to include all viral gene products and provide a genome browser that visualizes all the obtained data from whole genome to single-nucleotide resolution. Here, using computational integration of multi-omics data, the authors provide a detailed transcriptome and translatome of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), including previously unidentified ORFs and N-terminal extensions. The study also provides a HSV-1 genome browser and should be a valuable resource for further research.},

  abstract  = {Biodiversity may be investigated and explored by the means of genetic sequence information and molecular phylogenetics. Yet, with ribosomal genes, information for phylogenetic studies may not only be retained from the primary sequence, but also from the secondary structure. Software that is able to cope with two dimensional data and designed to answer taxonomic questions has been recently developed and published as a new scientific pipeline. This thesis is concerned with expanding this pipeline by a tool that facialiates the annotation of a ribosomal region, namely the ITS2. We were also able to show that this states a crucial step for secondary structure phylogenetics and for data allocation of the ITS2-database. This resulting freely available tool determines high quality annotations. In a further study, the complete phylogenetic pipeline has been evaluated on a theoretical basis in a comprehensive simulation study. We were able to show that both, the accuracy and the robustness of phylogenetic trees are largely improved by the approach. The second major part of this thesis concentrates on case studies that applied this pipeline to resolve questions in taxonomy and ecology. We were able to determine several independent phylogenies within the green algae that further corroborate the idea that secondary structures improve the obtainable phylogenetic signal, but now from a biological perspective. This approach was applicable in studies on the species and genus level, but due to the conservation of the secondary structure also for investigations on the deeper level of taxonomy. An additional case study with blue butterflies indicates that this approach is not restricted to plants, but may also be used for metazoan phylogenies. The importance of high quality phylogenetic trees is indicated by two ecological studies that have been conducted. By integrating secondary structure phylogenetics, we were able to answer questions about the evolution of ant-plant interactions and of communities of bacteria residing on different plant tissues. Finally, we speculate how phylogenetic methods with RNA may be further enhanced by integration of the third dimension. This has been a speculative idea that was supplemented with a small phylogenetic example, however it shows that the great potential of structural phylogenetics has not been fully exploited yet. Altogether, this thesis comprises aspects of several different biological disciplines, which are evolutionary biology and biodiversity research, community and invasion ecology as well as molecular and structural biology. Further, it is complemented by statistical approaches and development of informatical software. All these different research areas are combined by the means of bioinformatics as the central connective link into one comprehensive thesis.},
