Molecular population genetics of the Polycomb genes in Drosophila subobscura.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2017

Calvo-Martín Juan M, Papaceit Montserrat, Segarra Carmen

Abstract excerpt

Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are important regulatory factors that modulate the chromatin state. They form protein complexes that repress gene expression by the introduction of posttranslational histone modifications. The study of PcG proteins divergence in Drosophila revealed signals of coevolution among them and an acceleration of the nonsynonymous evolutionary rate in the lineage ancestral to the obscura...
