Reports on the diversity and occurrence of low-complexity regions (LCR) in Eukaryota are limited. Some studies have provided a more extensive characterization of LCR proteins in prokaryotes. There is a growing body of knowledge about a plethora of biological functions attributable to LCRs. However, it is hard to determine to what extent observed phenomena apply to fungi since most studies of fungal LCRs were limited to model yeasts. To fill this gap, we performed a survey of LCRs in proteins across all fungal tree of life branches. We show that the abundance of LCRs and the abundance of proteins with LCRs are positively correlated with proteome size. We observed that most LCRs are present in proteins with protein domains but do not overlap with the domain regions. LCRs are associated with many duplicated protein domains. The quantity of particular amino acids in LCRs deviates from the background frequency with a clear over-representation of amino acids with functional groups and a negative charge. Moreover, we discovered that each lineage of fungi favors distinct LCRs expansions. Early diverging fungal lineages differ in LCR abundance and composition pointing at a different evolutionary trajectory of each fungal group.
