The most parsimonious explanation for the absence of CLDN13 in humans, and all other species surveyed, is a gene duplication event specific to the murinae which lead to the evolution of a functional Cldn13 gene in Mus musculus, but appears to have been lost in Rattus norvegicus leaving only the degenerate sequence we identified.
The presence of DBD-truncated Q-rich ARFs allows an alternative transcriptional control, alongside the evolution of a functional motif in domain I of Aux/IAAs.
Evolution of a functional secretory system that combines a solution for mucus control and transport of viscous preys is here thought to underlie the successful radiation of goo-eating snakes.
An explanation for this small number of cases could be that the evolution of a functional trans-NAT from the antisense strand of a pseudogene eventually erases the traces of the pseudogene; therefore, the possibility of observing a trans-NAT related to a pseudogene could be transitory in evolutionary terms.
Evolution of a functional secretory system that combines a solution for mucus control and transport of viscous prey is here thought to underlie the successful radiation of goo-eating snakes, a group that includes three of the most speciose genera of advanced snakes known so far.

Many studies show the loss of a previously functional trait to be at least as common as the evolution of a novel functional trait (e.g., Wiens 2001; Porter and Crandall 2003).

The presence of most eIF3 subunits in trypanosomatids is consistent with an early evolution of a fully functional complex.
First, according to the neofunctionalization model, i.e. evolution of a new function through functional divergence of one of the duplicated copies, selective pressures are expected to be asymmetrical between paralogs [ 1].
Therefore, even tough the Leucine to Valine changes may not give any effect on amino acid charge, its conservation in evolution is suggestive of a functional role.
For instance, due to genome rearrangements during evolution, some parts of a functional region are kept in the original 5'-3' direction while other parts are inverted to 3'-5' directions.
