Genomic Organization and Differential Signature of Positive Selection in the Alpha and Beta Globin Gene Clusters in Two Cetacean Species

The hemoglobin of jawed vertebrates is a heterotetramer protein that contains two α- and two β-chains, which are encoded by members of α- and β-globin gene families. Given the hemoglobin role in mediating an adaptive response to chronic hypoxia, it is likely that this molecule may have experienced a...
