Biology 1002B Lecture Notes - Lecture 21: Synonymous Substitution, Phylogenetic Tree, Statistical Significance
Document Summary
Newly discovered orfs might be orthologs or paralogs. If a new gene discovered and is similar to another gene that is related through duplicaion it is a paralog. Sequences are similar because of a common ancestor (orthologes) Mulicellular animals needed to evolve a notch gene o o o. Detect things outside of the cell and efect the skeleton accordingly. Repair of double strand breaks could be a possible origin for lego-like genes placed in the same area. Non-homologous recombinaion within introns can result in exon shuling o. Personal genomics can give informaion on ancestry and health. If your dna binds, it shows you have that dna sequence (i. e. genes for sneezing when looking at the sun) Bacteria save small segments of infecing viral dna o o o. Puts pieces of viral genomes into host genome. Transcribes and expresses the small pieces o o o o. Guides cas9 to viral dna to chop it up.
