Excited to announce a paper led by PhD student Christina Harvey on the evolution of paralog synfunctionalization in the calsequestrin gene family. Vertebrate muscle physiology (particularly birds) meets gene family evolution and phylum-scale RNA-seq journals.plos.org/plosgenetics...
Author Summary Duplicated genes adopt different functional relationships that can directly influence physiological processes. Calsequestrin-1 and calsequestrin-2 are two similar proteins expressed fro...
