Genome analysis of the platypus reveals unique signatures of evolution

Wesley C. Warren, +104 more
- 08 May 2008 - 
TL;DR: It is found that reptile and platypus venom proteins have been co-opted independently from the same gene families; milk protein genes are conserved despite platypuses laying eggs; and immune gene family expansions are directly related to platypUS biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome analysis of the platypus reveals unique signatures of evolution (Nature (2008) 453, (175-183))

TL;DR: This corrects the article to show that the method used to derive the H2O2 “spatially aggregating force” is based on a two-step process, not a single step, like in the previous version of this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

In the platypus a meiotic chain of ten sex chromosomes shares genes with the bird Z and mammal X chromosomes

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that platypus has five male-specific chromosomes and five chromosomes present in one copy in males and two copies in females that form a multivalent chain at male meiosis, suggesting an evolutionary link between mammal and bird sex chromosome systems, which were previously thought to have evolved independently.
Journal ArticleDOI

Platypus Pou5f1 reveals the first steps in the evolution of trophectoderm differentiation and pluripotency in mammals.

TL;DR: It is shown that platypus and opossum genomes contain a Pou5f1 and pou2 homolog, pou 2‐related, indicating that these two genes are paralogues and arose by gene duplication in early mammalian evolution.
