Borg tandem repeats undergo rapid evolution and are under strong selection to create new intrinsically disordered regions in proteins

This repository contains files that accompany the Schoelmerich et al. (2022) bioRxiv preprint.

These files include

- all Borg proteins used for protein family clustering (all_Borg_proteins.fasta)

- 37 additional aaTR-proteins from manually curated Borg contigs (37_Borg_aaTR-proteins.fasta)

- IQ-TREE of Borg DNA polymerases and reference sequences from doi: 10.1093/nar/gkaa760 (DNAPolB_iqtree.treefile)

- Borg Sm ribonucleoprotein sequences (21_Borg_Sm_ribonucleoproteins.fasta)

- Borg MHC sequences (14_Borg_MHC_proteins.fasta)

- AlphaFold2 predicted structural models of Borg Sm ribonucleoproteins and MHCs with aaTRs
