Evolution of a New Function by Degenerative Mutation in Cephalochordate Steroid Receptors
Gene duplication is the predominant mechanism for the evolution of new genes. Major existing models of this process assume that duplicate genes are redundant; degenerative mutations in one copy can therefore accumulate close to neutrally, usually leading to loss from the genome. When gene products d...
