Gene family innovation, conservation and loss on the animal stem lineage.

eLife - 31 May 2018

Richter Daniel J, Fozouni Parinaz, Eisen Michael B, King Nicole

Abstract excerpt

Choanoflagellates, the closest living relatives of animals, can provide unique insights into the changes in gene content that preceded the origin of animals. However, only two choanoflagellate genomes are currently available, providing poor coverage of their diversity. We sequenced transcriptomes of 19 additional choanoflagellate species to produce a comprehensive reconstruction of the gains and losses that...
