Evolutionary dynamics of the DM domain gene family in metazoans.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Jan 2003

Volff Jean-Nicolas, Zarkower David, Bardwell Vivian J, Schartl Manfred

Abstract excerpt

The DM domain gene family encodes putative transcription factors related to the sexual regulators Doublesex from Drosophila melanogaster and MAB-3 from Caenorhabditis elegans. While some DM domain proteins are involved in sexual development in very distant metazoan phyla and one in somite development, the function of the great majority of them remains unclear. DM domain genes underwent frequent independent events...
