Region-specific expression of young small-scale duplications in the human central nervous system
Abstract Background The duplication of genes is one of the main genetic mechanisms that led to the gain in complexity of biological tissue. Although the implication of duplicated gene expression in brain evolution was extensively studied through comparisons between organs, their role in the regional...
