Abstract excerpt
Expression of the anthropoid (simian) gamma gene in fetal life contrasts with the exclusively embryonic expression pattern of the gamma-like genes of other eutherian mammals. To elucidate the factors responsible for this change in expression pattern, we utilized a strategy called differential phylogenetic footprinting (DPF). This strategy entails the following: (a) identification, within regulatory regions, of...
