This research investigates the evolutionary impact of gene duplication on the development of transcriptional regulators in animals. By studying various species, the project aims to uncover how duplicated genes diverge in function and contribute to evolutionary processes.
Like everything in biology, the genome is a product of evolution.
In our own history, mutations that duplicate genes have generated extensive multigene families and classes, including a great diversity of transcriptional regulators involved in development of cells, tissues and organs.
For example, two complete genome duplication events occurred in early vertebrate evolution (known as 2R), a third genome duplication occurred at the base of teleost fish (3R), and there were extensive tandem gene d…
