Multiple losses of aKRAB from PRDM9 coincide with a teleost-specific intron size distribution

Abstract Background Primary transcripts are largely comprised of intronic sequences that are excised and discarded shortly after synthesis. In vertebrates, the shape of the intron size distribution is largely constant; however, most teleost fish have a diverged log-bimodal ‘teleost distribution’ (TD...
