Researchers map the shape of gene expression across species
Original: The 'shape' of gene expression: Identifying genes that may share roles across species
A new study described in Phys.org presents a method for identifying genes that may share roles across different species by analysing the 'shape' of gene expression. The approach could help scientists compare how genes function in organisms that are distantly related, shedding light on conserved biological processes and improving understanding of gene function beyond simple sequence comparisons.
Why now: The study offers a novel way to find functionally equivalent genes across species, which interests biologists and genetics researchers.
