Correlates of evolutionary rates in the murine sperm proteome

Abstract Background Protein-coding genes expressed in sperm evolve at different rates. To gain deeper insight into the factors underlying this heterogeneity we examined the relative importance of a diverse set of previously described rate correlates in determining the evolution of murine sperm prote...
