The Root of the Universal Tree and the Origin of Eukaryotes Based on Elongation Factor Phylogeny

The genes for the protein synthesis elongation factors Tu (EF-Tu) and G (EF-G) are the products of an ancient gene duplication, which appears to predate the divergence of all extant organismal lineages. Thus, it should be possible to root a universal phylogeny based on either protein using the secon...
