Functional diversification of duplicate genes through subcellular adaptation of encoded proteins.
BACKGROUND: Gene duplication is the primary source of new genes with novel or altered functions. It is known that duplicates may obtain these new functional roles by evolving divergent expression patterns and/or protein functions after the duplication event. Here, using yeast (Saccharomyces cerevis...
