Yokoyama S, Starmer W T

Abstract excerpt

Rooted phylogenetic trees for a total of 34 genes encoding the stimulatory (s alpha), inhibitory (i alpha), transducin (t alpha), Gx (x alpha), Gz (z alpha), G11 (alpha 11), G12 (alpha 12), G13 (alpha 13), G16 (alpha 16), Gq (q alpha), and other (o alpha) G protein alpha subunits have been constr...
