Beyond Paralogs: The Multiple Layers of Redundancy in Bacterial Pathogenesis.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology - 1 Jan 2017

Ghosh Soma, O'Connor Tamara J

Abstract excerpt

Redundancy has been referred to as a state of no longer being needed or useful. Microbiologists often theorize that the only case of true redundancy in a haploid organism would be a recent gene duplication event, prior to divergence through selective pressure. However, a growing number of examples exist where an organism encodes two genes that appear to perform the same function. For example, many pathogens...
