Phylostratigraphic tracking of cancer genes suggests a link to the emergence of multicellularity in metazoa
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Phylostratigraphy is a method used to correlate the evolutionary origin of founder genes (that is, functional founder protein domains) of gene families with particular macroevolutionary transitions. It is based on a model of genome e...
