Concurrent duplication of the Cid and Cenp-C genes in the Drosophila subgenus with signatures of subfunctionalization and male germline-biased expression

2017-05-05

Abstract excerpt

Despite their essential role in the process of chromosome segregation in eukaryotes, kinetochore proteins are highly diverse across species, being lost, duplicated, created, or diversified during evolution. Based on comparative genomics, the duplication of the inner kinetochore proteins CenH3 and Cenp-C, which are interdependent in their roles of stablishing centromere identity and function, can be said to be rare...
