GENE DUPLICATION AND PHYLOGENY IN CLARKIA [PDF]
Evolution, 1979 Direct evidence for the descent of a group of species from a single common ancestor is rarely possible in the absence of fossils. Consequently, phylogenetic taxonomy relies on comparative analysis of morphological, chromosomal, and biochemical characters for evidence of relationship.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The noncoding region of the genome plays a key role in regulating gene expression, and mutations within these regions are capable of altering it. Researchers have identified multiple functional noncoding mutations associated with increased cancer risk in the genome of breast cancer patients.

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of NBS-encoding genes in Malus x domestica and expansion of NBS genes family in Rosaceae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Nucleotide binding site leucine-rich repeats (NBS-LRR) disease resistance proteins play an important role in plant defense against pathogen attack. A number of recent studies have been carried out to identify and characterize NBS-LRR gene families in ...

Progressive Mauve: Multiple alignment of genomes with gene flux and rearrangement [PDF]
, 2009 Multiple genome alignment remains a challenging problem. Effects of recombination including rearrangement, segmental duplication, gain, and loss can create a mosaic pattern of homology even among closely related organisms.

Restriction and Recruitment—Gene Duplication and the Origin and Evolution of Snake Venom Toxins
bioRxiv, 2014 The genetic and genomic mechanisms underlying evolutionary innovations are of fundamental importance to our understanding of animal evolution. Snake venom represents one such innovation and has been hypothesised to have originated and diversified via a ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We developed and validated a DNA methylation–based biomarker panel to distinguish pleural mesothelioma from other pleural conditions. Using the IMPRESS technology, we translated this panel into a clinically applicable assay. The resulting two classifier models demonstrated excellent performance, achieving high AUC values and strong diagnostic accuracy.

Evolutionary ecology of opsin gene sequence, expression and repertoire. [PDF]
, 2017 Linking molecular evolution to biological function is a long-standing challenge in evolutionary biology. Some of the best examples of this involve opsins, the genes that encode the molecular basis of light reception.

Gene duplication and neofunctionalization: POLR3G and POLR3GL
Genome Research, 2014 RNA polymerase III (Pol III) occurs in two versions, one containing the POLR3G subunit and the other the closely related POLR3GL subunit. It is not clear whether these two Pol III forms have the same function, in particular whether they recognize the ...

Gene Duplication and Ectopic Gene Conversion in Drosophila [PDF]
Genes, 2011 The evolutionary impact of gene duplication events has been a theme of Drosophila genetics dating back to the Morgan School. While considerable attention has been placed on the genetic novelties that duplicates are capable of introducing, and the role that positive selection plays in their early stages of duplicate evolution, much less attention has ...
