Question:

What are the Types of functional divergence?

Author: Noura Al shalan



Answer:

• 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.).
