The nanos1 gene was duplicated in early Vertebrates and the two paralogs show different gonadal expression profiles in a shark
Abstract Nanos are RNA-binding proteins playing crucial roles in germ cell development and maintenance. Based on phylogenetic and synteny analyses, this study reveals that nanos1 gene has undergone multiple duplications and gene copies losses in Vertebrates. Chondrichthyan species display two nanos1...
