  1. Presence or absence in E. cuniculi is indicated (as defined in Methods), along with the genbank accession numbers for both S. cerevisiae and E. cuniculi proteins. Absent proteins are presented in bold type. Italicized accession numbers indicate that the presence or absence of these proteins in E. cuniculi was unclear. (See results for more information.) When S. pombe proteins appeared to be more conserved among eukaryotes than S. cerevisiae homologues (or where S. cerevisiae homologues do not exist), they were used to conduct the BLAST and PSI-BLAST searches. These proteins are marked with asterixes. S. cerevisiae nomenclature is used, with S. pombe or animal homologues given in brackets. Pathway components were largely compiled from the following sources: MMR from Marti et al. [22], BER from Boiteux and Guillet [12], NER from Prakash and Prakash [17], NHEJ from Daley et al. [57], HRR from Aylon and Kupiec [24], DNA polymerases from Burgers [58] and Hubscher et al., [4].
