A Phylogenetic Approach Finds Abundant Interlocus Gene Conversion in Yeast

MOLECULAR BIOLOGY AND EVOLUTION, 33(9), 2469–2476.

By: X. Ji n, A. Griffing n & J. Thorne n

author keywords: interlocus gene conversion; multigene family evolution
MeSH headings : Base Sequence / genetics; Biological Evolution; Evolution, Molecular; Gene Conversion; Models, Genetic; Multigene Family; Nucleotides / genetics; Phylogeny; Point Mutation; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; Sequence Analysis, DNA / methods; Yeasts / genetics
TL;DR: This work estimated the percentage of nucleotide substitutions that originate with an IGC event rather than a point mutation in 14 groups of yeast ribosomal protein-coding genes, and found values ranging from 20% to 38%. (via Semantic Scholar)

Roles of Solvent Accessibility and Gene Expression in Modeling Protein Sequence Evolution

EVOLUTIONARY BIOINFORMATICS, 11.

By: K. Wang n, S. Yu n, X. Ji n, C. Lakner n, A. Griffing n & J. Thorne n

author keywords: protein evolution; protein structure; gene expression; codon usage; scaled selection coefficient; solvent accessibility
TL;DR: It is come to the biologically plausible conclusion that both RSA and gene expression are related to amino acid frequencies, but, among synonymous codons, the relative probability of a particular codon is more closely related to gene expression than RSA. (via Semantic Scholar)
