contents Vanadium-Dependent Haloperoxidase Gene Evolution in Brown Algae: Evidence for Horizontal Gene Transfer. Yuan, Zihao Zhang, Jie Duan, Delin Gene Transfer, Horizontal Phaeophyceae Phylogeny Evolution, Molecular Peroxidases Vanadium Multigene Family Compared with green plants, brown algae are characterized by their ability to accumulate iodine, contributing to their ecological adaptability in high-iodide coastal environments. Vanadium-dependent haloperoxidase (V-HPO) is the key enzyme for iodine synthesis. Despite its significance, the evolutionary origin of V-HPO genes remains underexplored. This study investigates the genomic and evolutionary dynamics of V-HPOs in brown algae, focusing on Laminariales species, particularly . Genomic analyses revealed the extensive expansion of the V-HPO gene family in brown algae, with 88 V-HPOs identified in , surpassing the number in red algae. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated distinct evolutionary divergence between brown and red algal V-HPOs, with the brown algal clade closely related to bacterial V-HPOs. These findings suggest horizontal gene transfer (HGT) played a key role in acquiring V-HPO genes, particularly from Acidobacteriota, a bacterial phylum known for genomic plasticity. Additionally, enriched active transposable elements were identified around V-HPO genomic clusters, highlighting their role in tandem gene duplications and rapid HGT processes. Expression profiling further revealed dynamic regulation of V-HPOs in response to environmental conditions. This study provides new insights into how HGT has driven kelp genomic adaptations and enhances understanding of marine ecological success and evolutionary processes.
