Subfunctionalization reduces the fitness cost of gene duplication in humans by buffering dosage imbalances
BACKGROUND: Driven essentially by random genetic drift, subfunctionalization has been identified as a possible non-adaptive mechanism for the retention of duplicate genes in small-population species, where widespread deleterious mutations are likely to cause complementary loss of subfunctions across...
