Unveiling the functional nature of retrogenes in dinoflagellates

Retroposition is a gene duplication mechanism that uses RNA molecules as intermediaries to generate new gene copies. Dinoflagellates are proposed as an ideal model for exploring this process due to the tagging of retrogenes with DNA-encoded remnants of the dinoflagellate-specific splice-leader motif...
