Molecular cloning, functional characterization, and evolutionary analysis of vitamin D receptors isolated from basal vertebrates.
The vertebrate genome is a result of two rapid and successive rounds of whole genome duplication, referred to as 1R and 2R. Furthermore, teleost fish have undergone a third whole genome duplication (3R) specific to their lineage, resulting in the retention of multiple gene paralogs. The more recent...
