Discovery of 119-million-year-old selfish genes in yeast potentially alters our understanding of how parasitic DNA impacts genome evolution

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, October 19, 2022

Meiotic drivers are thus named as they can acquire the ability to literally "drive" the transmission of their genes throughout a genome, often with negative consequences.

Key Points: 
  • Meiotic drivers are thus named as they can acquire the ability to literally "drive" the transmission of their genes throughout a genome, often with negative consequences.
  • Natural selection in a genome typically rescues a species from selfish genes by favoring genes that suppress, or silence drive, rendering it useless.
  • It also changes the way scientists may look for and identify families of selfish genes in different species, including humans.
  • "Since selfish genes are major drivers of evolution, this new finding opens the door for thinking about how drivers can have persistent, long-term effects on genome evolution."
