The ets multigene family is conserved throughout the Metazoa
, 1993 This study provides the first empirical evidence for the conservation of the ets proto-oncogene transcription factor family throughout the Metazoa. Using the polymerase chain reaction with degenerate primers corresponding to conserved sequences within ...

A Novel SPAST/SPG4 Splice-Site Variant in a Family with Dominant Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Case Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2020 Some causes of spastic paraplegia are treatable and many are not. Diagnostic work-up to determine the etiology can be costly and invasive. Here we report the case of a man with slowly progressive spastic paraparesis.

Subcellular localisation of the cir multigene family in plasmodium chabaudi [PDF]
, 2019 The pir genes are a multigene family found in every species of the malaria parasite Plasmodium so far sequenced. Their preservation in large numbers in the parasite genome implies they fulfill a function or functions of evolutionary importance.

MicroorganismsMalaria parasites increase their host erythrocyte’s permeability to obtain essential nutrients from plasma and facilitate intracellular growth. In the human Plasmodium falciparum pathogen, this increase is mediated by the plasmodial surface anion channel

Predicted expansion of the claudin multigene family
FEBS Letters, 2011 Claudins (Cldn) are essential membrane proteins of tight junctions (TJs), which form the paracellular permselective barrier. They are produced by a multi-gene family of 24 reported members in mouse and human. Based on a comprehensive search combined with phylogenetic analyses, we identified three novel claudins (claudin-25, -26, and -27).

Differential transcription of the major antigenic protein 1 multigene family of Ehrlichia ruminantium in Amblyomma variegatum ticks [PDF]
, 2007 The rickettsial pathogen Ehrlichia ruminantium causes heartwater in ruminants and is transmitted by ticks of the genus Amblyomma. The map1 gene, encoding the major surface protein MAP1, is a member of a multigene family containing 16 paralogs.

Evolution of a multigene family of chorion proteins in silkmoths. [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1982 The evolution of the A family of chorion genes was examined by comparing new protein and DNA sequences from the silkmoths Antheraea pernyi and Bombyx mori with previously known sequences from Antheraea polyphemus. The comparisons indicated that the A family and its major subfamilies are ancient and revealed how parts of the genes corresponding to ...

Multigene Family Evolution: Perspectives from Insect Chemoreceptors.
, 2015 Understanding the birth and diversification of multigene families is a fundamental evolutionary problem. I argue for the insect chemoreceptor superfamily as an outstanding model.
