Positive selection in the adhesion domain of Mus sperm Adam genes through gene duplications and function-driven gene complex formations
BACKGROUND: Sperm and testes-expressed Adam genes have been shown to undergo bouts of positive selection in mammals. Despite the pervasiveness of positive selection signals, it is unclear what has driven such selective bouts. The fact that only sperm surface Adam genes show signals of positive selec...
