Early vertebrate chromosome duplications and the evolution of the neuropeptide Y receptor gene regions

25 Jun 2008

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: One of the many gene families that expanded in early vertebrate evolution is the neuropeptide (NPY) receptor family of G-protein coupled receptors. Earlier work by our lab suggested that several of the NPY receptor genes found in extant vertebrates resulted from two genome duplications before the origin of jawed vertebrates (gnathostomes) and one additional genome duplication in the actinopterygian...
