Functional Analysis of Nuclear-Encoded Mitochondrial Gene Duplicates with Testis-Biased Expression in Drosophila melanogaster
(2019-08-12)Most of the genes encoding proteins that function in the mitochondria are located in the nucleus and are called nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes (N-mt genes). In Drosophila melanogaster, most of the tissue-specific ... -
GENETIC INNOVATION THROUGH GENE DUPLICATION IN DROSOPHILA
(2021-08-13)Among several mechanisms, whole gene duplication is one of the major sources for the generation of new genes. A large portion of young genes that emerged through whole gene duplication in Drosophila are specifically expressed ...
