Enhanced evolution by stochastically variable modification of epigenetic marks in the early embryo.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 29 Apr 2014

Branciamore Sergio, Rodin Andrei S, Riggs Arthur D, Rodin Sergei N

Abstract excerpt

Evolution by gene duplication is generally accepted as one of the crucial driving forces for the gain of new complexity and functions, but the formation of pseudogenes remains a problem for this mechanism. Here we expand on earlier ideas that epigenetic modifications can drive neo- and subfunctionalization in evolution by gene duplication. We explore the effects of stochastic epigenetic modifications on the...
