Molecular evolution of neuropeptides in the genus Drosophila.

Genome biology - 1 Jan 2008

Wegener Christian, Gorbashov Anton

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Neuropeptides comprise the most diverse group of neuronal signaling molecules. They often occur as multiple sequence-related copies within single precursors (the prepropeptides). These multiple sequence-related copies have not arisen by gene duplication, and it is debated whether they...
