The paper studies tRNA gene evolution in Drosophila, finding rapid duplication and loss, sexual dimorphism in expression, and implications for regulatory diversity.

The paper identifies primate-specific genes as more essential in cancer cell lines and shows their increased co-expression in cancer networks.

This study identifies rare variants under positive selection in wild boar linked to cold adaptation, showing convergent molecular evolution with humans.

This study identifies syp as a gene regulating Starvation-Induced Hyperactivity in Drosophila through RNA-binding protein function and alternative splicing.

The paper analyzes new genes in Drosophila to show that recently evolved genes can quickly become essential for development.
