Gene duplication, the evolution of novel gene functions, and detecting functional divergence of duplicates in silico.

Abstract excerpt

Duplication of genes increases the amount of genetic material on which evolution can work and has been considered of major importance for the development of biological novelties or to explain important transitions that have occurred during biological evolution. Recently, much research has been devoted to the study of the evolutionary and functional divergence of duplicated genes. Since the majority of genes are...
