The evolutionary dynamics of eukaryotic gene order
In eukaryotes, unlike in bacteria, gene order has typically been assumed to be random.
However, the first statistically rigorous analyses of complete genomes, together with the …

De novo gene birth
SB Van Oss, AR Carvunis - PLoS genetics, 2019 - journals.plos.org
De novo gene birth is the process by which new genes evolve from DNA sequences that
were ancestrally non-genic. De novo genes represent a subset of novel genes, and may be …
