En bloc duplications, mutation rates, and densities of amino acid changes clarify the evolution of vertebrate alpha-1,3/4-fucosyltransferases.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Sept 2006

Petit Daniel, Maftah Abderrahman, Julien Raymond, Petit Jean-Michel

Abstract excerpt

Numerous vertebrates have four alpha-1,3/4-fucosyltransferase genes (FUT9, FUT7, FUT4, and FUT Lewis) belonging to the same family. Until now, studies on the evolution of this family have mainly focused on Lewis genes but how the other alpha-1,3/4-fucosyltransferases have emerged from a common ancestor is not well known. In order to define the respective roles of duplications and mutations, we have compared amino...
