Identifying concerted evolution and gene conversion in mammalian gene pairs lasting over 100 million years
BACKGROUND: Concerted evolution occurs in multigene families and is characterized by stretches of homogeneity and higher sequence similarity between paralogues than between orthologues. Here we identify human gene pairs that have undergone concerted evolution, caused by ongoing gene conversion, sinc...
