The Evolution of the Mammalian ABCA6-like Genes: Analysis of Phylogenetic, Expression, and Population Genetic Data Reveals Complex Evolutionary Histories.

Abstract excerpt

ABC membrane transporters are a large and complex superfamily of ATP-binding cassette transporters that are present in all domains of life. Both their essential function and complexity are reflected by their retention across large expanses of organismal diversity and by the extensive expansion of individual members and subfamilies during evolutionary history. This expansion has resulted in the diverse ABCA...
