Functional diversification accompanies gene family expansion of MED2 homologs in Candida albicans.

Gene duplication facilitates functional diversification and provides greater phenotypic flexibility to an organism. Expanded gene families arise through repeated gene duplication but the extent of functional divergence that accompanies each paralogous gene is generally unexplored because of the diff...
