Buffering by gene duplicates: an analysis of molecular correlates and evolutionary conservation
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>One mechanism to account for robustness against gene knockouts or knockdowns is through buffering by gene duplicates, but the extent and general correlates of this process in organisms is still a matter of debate. To reveal general t...
