Computational Insights into Evolutionary Dynamics of Human and Primate Genes
The evolutionary history of genes across different species is a subject of research interest. For human genes, there is a particular focus on investigating the possible origins of genes. However, there has been limited research on the development process from an evolutionary perspective. …

Annotating and characterizing orphan gene in Zea mays via diverse RNA-Seq data
… I refer to "dark transcriptome". Some functional genes have been identified from this dark transcriptome. Most genes in the dark transcriptome are orphan genes. Orphan genes are the recently emerged young genes, which share no sequence similarity with proteins in any other species. In the last 20 …

On the Origins of Genetic Novelty in Drosophila
… be variation without a source of new variants. Understanding how novelty emerges, then, is a crucial problem of basic relevance in evolutionary biology. In this thesis, I examine two aspects regarding the origins of novelty: first, how new proteins originate and subsequently evolve; second, how …
