The evolution of the novel Sdic gene cluster in Drosophila melanogaster.

Gene - 19 Jul 2006

Ponce Rita, Hartl Daniel L

Abstract excerpt

The origin of new genes and of new functions for existing genes are fundamental processes in molecular evolution. Sdic is a newly evolved gene that arose recently in the D. melanogaster lineage. The gene encodes a novel sperm motility protein. It is a chimeric gene formed by duplication of two other genes followed by multiple deletions and other sequence rearrangements. The Sdic gene exists in several copies in...
