Proteasomal Gene Duplications And Recruitment Of Testis Specific Expression In Drosophila
Sorourian, Mehran (Biology, 2008-09-17)Proteasome is a large multisubunit complex that degrades ubiquitinated proteins in a highly regulated manner in all eukaryotes. Two subcompartments of this subunit are the 19Scap and the 20S core particle with 19S acting ... -
Rcd-1 Related:a Positively Selected Retrogene With Spermatogenesis Function In Drosophila
Muliyil, Taniya (Biology, 2008-04-22)Gene duplication is one of the major forces in driving genome evolution. Our study focuses on a particular retrogene Rcd-1 related (Rcd-1r) that originated through retroposition of the parental gene Required for cell ... -
Sequence Evolution Of Recurrently Recruited Retroposed Genes In Drosophila And Their Possible Role In Meiotic Drive
Tracy, Charles David (Biology, 2009-09-16)Gene duplications are a valuable source of genetic information that can evolve under positive selection creating a new gene function without affecting the original function.A gene duplication mechanism is retroposition. ... -
Study Of The Expression Pattern Of A Possible Pseudogene And A Functional Retrogene In Drosophila
Bhardwaj, Aditi (Biology, 2007-08-23)Gene duplication occurs when a mutation leads to the copying of a region of DNA that contains a functional gene. After duplication, there will be two copies of the gene in the genome. Gene duplication can have deleterious ...
