Question:
What are the Types of functional divergence?
Author: Noura Al shalanAnswer:
• Type I functional divergence results in altered functional constraints (i.e., different evolutionary rate) between duplicate genes (Gu 1999). • Type II results in no altered functional constraints but radical change in amino acid property between them (e.g., charge, hydrophobicity, etc.).
