Question
Chapter 4, Problem 45P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To define the exon shuffling and explain how exon shuffling might be an evolutionary advantage.
Concept introduction:
Exon Shuffling is a hypothesis stated by Gilbert and Blake which refers to the encodement of structural and functional proteins by exons which can combine to form a new set of proteins. As the number of new proteins is increasing this hypothesis also indicates at evolution in of new genes from the new proteins.
