Gene duplication events are important sources of novel gene functions. However, more often than not, a duplicate gene may lose its function and become a pseudogene. What is the relative frequency of these two scenarios: functional divergence versus gene loss? Given that most non-neutral mutations ar

The systematic sequencing of 42,485 bp of yeast chromosome VII (nucleotides 377948 to 420432) has revealed the presence of 27 putative open reading frames (ORFs) coding for proteins of at least 100 amino acids. The degree of redundancy observed is elevated since five of the 27 ORFs are duplications
