Comparative Genomics Reveals Gene Duplication and Evolution in 26 Aurantioideae Species

open access: yesHorticulturae
Gene duplication, as a prevalent phenomenon in the tree of life, provides a potential substrate for evolution. However, its role in the Aurantioideae remains unclear.

Mechanisms of Gene Duplication and Amplification [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2015
Changes in gene copy number are among the most frequent mutational events in all genomes and were among the mutations for which a physical basis was first known. Yet mechanisms of gene duplication remain uncertain because formation rates are difficult to measure and mechanisms may vary with position in a genome.

Genomic studies on gene duplication.

open access: yes, 2007
Using yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as the main model organism, I addressed three fundamental questions on gene duplication. I first investigated the functional divergence after gene duplication, revealing a general pattern of rapid subfunctionalization

Detecting functional divergence after gene duplication through evolutionary changes in posttranslational regulatory sequences. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2014
Gene duplication is an important evolutionary mechanism that can result in functional divergence in paralogs due to neo-functionalization or sub-functionalization.

Comparative gene retention analysis in barley, wild emmer, and bread wheat pangenome lines reveals factors affecting gene retention following gene duplication

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2023
Background Gene duplication is a prevalent phenomenon and a major driving force underlying genome evolution. The process leading to the fixation of gene duplicates following duplication is critical to understand how genome evolves but remains ...

Glyphosate resistance and EPSPS gene duplication: convergent evolution in multiple plant species

open access: yes, 2017
One of the increasingly widespread mechanisms of resistance to the herbicide glyphosate is copy number variation (CNV) of the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) gene.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Overdosage of HNF1B Gene Associated With Annular Pancreas Detected in Neonate Patients With 17q12 Duplication

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
The annular pancreas (AP) is a congenital anomaly of the pancreas that can cause acute abdominal pain and vomiting after birth. However, the genetic cause of AP is still unknown, and no study has reported AP in patients with 17q12 duplication. This study
