29 mammalian genomes reveal novel exaptations of mobile elements for likely regulatory functions in the human genome.
Recent research supports the view that changes in gene regulation, as opposed to changes in the genes themselves, play a significant role in morphological evolution. Gene regulation is largely dependent on transcription factor binding sites. Researchers are now able to use the available 29 mammalian...
