A genetic polymorphism evolving in parallel in two cell compartments and in two clades

A genetic polymorphism evolving in parallel in two cell compartments and in two clades

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, PEPCK, occurs in its guanosine-nucleotide-using form in animals and a few prokaryotes. We study its natural genetic variation in <it>Colias</it> (Lepidoptera, Pieridae). PEPCK...
