Large scale of human duplicate genes divergence.

Abstract excerpt

Proteome complexity increases in the evolution mostly by means of gene duplication followed by divergence. In this genome-scale study of human genome I show that density distribution of duplicate gene pairs along the axis of protein divergence between pair members forms two main peaks with a small peak and plateau before the first main peak. This picture indicates the existence of three evolutionary stages of...
