High genetic diversity in the chemoreceptor superfamily of Caenorhabditis elegans.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2005

Abstract excerpt

We investigated genetic polymorphism in the Caenorhabditis elegans srh and str chemoreceptor gene families, each of which consists of approximately 300 genes encoding seven-pass G-protein-coupled receptors. Almost one-third of the genes in each family are annotated as pseudogenes because of apparent functional defects in N2, the sequenced wild-type strain of C. elegans. More than half of these "pseudogenes" have...
