Conserved functions of yeast genes support the duplication, degeneration and complementation model for gene duplication.

Genetics - 1 Dec 2005

Abstract excerpt

Gene duplication is often cited as a potential mechanism for the evolution of new traits, but this hypothesis has not been thoroughly tested experimentally. A classical model of gene duplication states that after gene duplication one copy of the gene preserves the ancestral function, while the other copy is free to evolve a new function. In an alternative duplication, divergence, and complementation model,...
