Phylonumtomics uncovers diverse evolutionary trajectories of mitogenomic fossils buried in mammalian and avian genomes
2023-08-07
Abstract excerpt
Sporadically genetic material that originates from an organelle genome integrates into the nuclear genome. However it is unclear what processes maintain such an integration over longer evolutionary time. Recently it was shown that nuclear DNA of mitochondrial origin (NUMTs) may harbour genes with intact mitochondrial reading frames despite the fact that they are highly divergent to the host’s mitochondrial genome....
