Comparative genome mapping reveals evidence of gene conversion between Sox9 paralogs of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
چکیده انگلیسی

Considerable evidence suggests that one genome duplication event preceded the divergence of teleost fishes and a second genome duplication event occurred before the radiation of teleosts of the family Salmonidae. Two Sox9 genes have been isolated from a number of teleosts and are called Sox9a and Sox9b. Two Sox9 gene copies have also been isolated from rainbow trout, a salmonid fish and are called Sox9 and Sox9α2. Previous evaluations of the evolutionary history of rainbow trout Sox9 gene copies using phylogenetic reconstructions of their coding regions indicated that they both belong to the Sox9b clade. In this study, we determine the true evolutionary history of Sox9 gene copies in rainbow trout. We show that the locus referred to as Sox9 in rainbow trout is itself duplicated. Mapping of the duplicated Sox9 gene copies indicates that they are co-orthologs of Sox9b while mapping of Sox9α2 indicates that it is an ortholog of Sox9a. This relationship is supported by phylogenetic reconstruction of Sox9 gene copies in teleosts using their 3′ untranslated regions. The conflicting phylogenetic topology of Sox9 genes in rainbow trout indicates the occurrence of gene conversion events between Sox9 and Sox9α2 which is supported by a number of recombination analyses.
