Mechanisms of transcription factor evolution in Metazoa by Schmitz, Jonathan F, Zimmer, Fabian, Bornberg-Bauer, Erich

“…Transcriptions factors (TFs) are pivotal for the regulation of virtually all cellular processes, including growth and development. Expansions of TF families…”

Fact or fiction: updates on how protein-coding genes might emerge de novo from previously non-coding DNA by Schmitz, Jonathan F, Bornberg-Bauer, Erich

“…Over the last few years, there has been an increasing amount of evidence for the emergence of protein-coding genes, i.e. out of non-coding DNA. Here, we review…”

Stochastic Gain and Loss of Novel Transcribed Open Reading Frames in the Human Lineage by Dowling, Daniel, Schmitz, Jonathan F, Bornberg-Bauer, Erich

“…Abstract In addition to known genes, much of the human genome is transcribed into RNA. Chance formation of novel open reading frames (ORFs) can lead to the…”

Evolution of novel genes in three-spined stickleback populations by Schmitz, Jonathan F, Chain, Frédéric J J, Bornberg-Bauer, Erich

“…Eukaryotic genomes frequently acquire new protein-coding genes which may significantly impact an organism's fitness. Novel genes can be created, for example,…”

The Goddard and Saturn Genes Are Essential for Drosophila Male Fertility and May Have Arisen De Novo by Gubala, Anna M, Schmitz, Jonathan F, Kearns, Michael J, Vinh, Tery T, Bornberg-Bauer, Erich, Wolfner, Mariana F, Findlay, Geoffrey D

“…New genes arise through a variety of mechanisms, including the duplication of existing genes and the de novo birth of genes from noncoding DNA sequences. While…”

Incipient de novo genes can evolve from frozen accidents that escaped rapid transcript turnover by Schmitz, Jonathan F., Ullrich, Kristian K., Bornberg-Bauer, Erich

“…A recent surge of studies have suggested that many novel genes arise de novo from previously noncoding DNA and not by duplication. However, most studies…”
