Evolutionary fate and implications of retrocopies in the African coelacanth genome
BACKGROUND: The coelacanth is known as a “living fossil” because of its morphological resemblance to its fossil ancestors. Thus, it serves as a useful model that provides insight into the fish that first walked on land. Retrocopies are a type of novel genetic element that are likely to contribute to...
