Long-lasting redundant gnrh1/3 expression in GnRH neurons enabled apparent switching of paralog usage during evolution
22 Feb 2024
Abstract excerpt
Expressed subtype of paralogous genes in functionally homologous cells sometimes show differences across species, the reasons for which have not been explained. The present study examined hypophysiotropic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons in vertebrates to investigate this mechanism. These neurons express either gnrh1 or gnrh3 paralogs, depending on the species, and apparent switching of the expressed...
