Platypus globin genes and flanking loci suggest a new insertional model for beta-globin evolution in birds and mammals
BACKGROUND: Vertebrate alpha (α)- and beta (β)-globin gene families exemplify the way in which genomes evolve to produce functional complexity. From tandem duplication of a single globin locus, the α- and β-globin clusters expanded, and then were separated onto different chromosomes. The previous fi...
