Title: Hox clusters as models for vertebrate genome evolution. Author: Hoegg S, Meyer A. Journal: Trends Genet; 2005 Aug; 21(8):421-4. PubMed ID: 15967537. Abstract: The surprising variation in the number of Hox clusters and the genomic architecture within vertebrate lineages, especially within the ray-finned fish, reflects a history of duplications and subsequent lineage-specific gene loss. Recent research on the evolution of conserved non-coding sequences (CNS) in Hox clusters promises to reveal interesting results for functional and phenotypic diversification.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
