Has gene duplication impacted the evolution of Eutherian longevity? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
One of the greatest unresolved questions in aging biology is determining the genetic basis of interspecies longevity variation. Gene duplication is often the key to understanding the origin and evolution of important Eutherian phenotypes.

The Evolutionary Relationship between Alternative Splicing and Gene Duplication

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2017
The protein diversity that exists today has resulted from various evolutionary processes. It is well known that gene duplication (GD) along with the accumulation of mutations are responsible, among other factors, for an increase in the number of ...

Selection in the evolution of gene duplications [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2002
Gene duplications have a major role in the evolution of new biological functions. Theoretical studies often assume that a duplication per se is selectively neutral and that, following a duplication, one of the gene copies is freed from purifying (stabilizing) selection, which creates the potential for evolution of a new function.In search of systematic

Gene Duplication and Protein Evolution in Tick-Host Interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Ticks modulate their hosts' defense responses by secreting a biopharmacopiea of hundreds to thousands of proteins and bioactive chemicals into the feeding site (tick-host interface).

The Phenotypic Plasticity of Duplicated Genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the Origin of Adaptations

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
Gene and genome duplication are the major sources of biological innovations in plants and animals. Functional and transcriptional divergence between the copies after gene duplication has been considered the main driver of innovations .

Chromosome duplication causing gene‐dosage‐based effects on the gene expression level in Gossypium hirsutum‐Gossypium australe addition lines

open access: yesPlant Direct, 2020
Polyploidization, or whole‐genome duplication, leads to gene expression changes that drive the evolution of many plants and some animals. However, the role of the dosage effect on gene expression changes following genome duplication remains unclear. Here,

Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of the E3 ligase LTN1, the ubiquitin‐like modifier UFM1, or the deubiquitinating enzyme UFSP2 disrupts endoplasmic reticulum–ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), a pathway that removes stalled ribosomes and faulty proteins. This disruption may trigger a compensatory response to ER‐RQC defects, including increased expression of the E3 ligase RNF10 ...

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

Hierarchy and Feedback in the Evolution of the E. coli Transcription Network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The E.coli transcription network has an essentially feedforward structure, with, however, abundant feedback at the level of self-regulations. Here, we investigate how these properties emerged during evolution.
