Abstract excerpt
The role of sequence divergence in functional divergence of duplicate genes is a topic of great interest. In this study, we compare the numbers of amino acid substitutions in each sequence since two yeast duplicates diverged, using a preduplication ancestral outgroup. Using this strategy, we explored the relationship between sequence divergence and functional divergence between duplicate partners. We show that...
