Uncovering de novo gene birth in yeast using deep transcriptomics
Genome-wide studies of de novo genes have tended to focus on genomic open reading frames (ORFs). Here, Blevins et al. use deep transcriptomics and synteny information to identify de novo transcripts in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, many of which are expressed from the alternative DNA strand.
