Comparison of Octopus dofleini hemocyanin paralogues and evidence for recent divergence

Creator:

van Olden, Erin K.

Abstract:

Presented here is an in depth comparison of the Octopus dofleini hemocyanin paralogues, designated A and G. The protein sequences coded by these genes are each comprised of seven oxygen-binding units, or functional units (FU-a to FU-g). Each FU is approximately 400 amino acids in length and a linker region...
