Mammalian gene evolution: nucleotide sequence divergence between mouse and rat.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Oct 1993

Wolfe K H, Sharp P M

Abstract excerpt

As a paradigm of mammalian gene evolution, the nature and extent of DNA sequence divergence between homologous protein-coding genes from mouse and rat have been investigated. The data set examined includes 363 genes totalling 411 kilobases, making this by far the largest comparison conducted between a single pair of species. Mouse and rat genes are on average 93.4% identical in nucleotide sequence and 93.9%...
