Evolutionary and Expression Analyses Show Co-option of khdrbs Genes for Origin of Vertebrate Brain
Genes generated by whole genome duplications (WGD) can be co-opted by changing their regulation process or altering their coding proteins, which has been shown contributable to the emergence of vertebrate morphological novelties such as vertebrate cartilage. Mouse khdrbs genes, differing from its in...
