Adaptive evolution of M3 lysin--a candidate gamete recognition protein in the Mytilus edulis species complex.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Dec 2013

Lima Thiago G, McCartney Michael A

Abstract excerpt

Marine invertebrate gamete recognition proteins (GRPs) are classic examples of rapid adaptive evolution of reproductive proteins, and hybridizing Mytilus blue mussels allow us to study the evolution of GRPs during speciation following secondary contact. Even with frequent hybridization, positive selection drives divergence of M7 lysin, one of the three Mytilus egg vitelline envelope (VE) lysins. Mytilus trossulus...
