Dynamic molecular evolution of mammalian homeobox genes: duplication, loss, divergence and gene conversion sculpt PRD class repertoires
The majority of homeobox genes are highly conserved across animals, but the eutherian-specific ETCHbox genes, embryonically expressed and highly divergent duplicates of CRX, are a notable exception. Here we compare the ETCHbox genes of 34 mammalian species, uncovering dynamic patterns of gene loss a...
