Welcome! If you are familiar with the subject of this article, you can contribute to this open access knowledge base by deleting incorrect information, restructuring or completely rewriting any text.

Ideally this entry shall become one comprehensive and continuous article. Bulleted lists, for instance, were only used because it is impossible to automatically integrate independent facts into a continuous text.

Much of the current information on this page has been automatically compiled from Pubmed.

This precompiled information serves as a substrate and matrix to embed your contributions, but it is by no means the final word - Homo sapiens can do much better!

WikiGenes is a non-profit and open access community project.

High impact information on ocn

Molecular evolution of the ocnus and janus genes in the Drosophila melanogaster species subgroup [1].
Here we describe a new Drosophila melanogaster gene, ocnus (ocn), that encodes a protein abundant in testes nuclear extracts [1].
The janusA, janusB, and ocnus genes share two short introns derived from a common ancestor [2].
Patterns of DNA sequence variation suggest the recent action of positive selection in the janus-ocnus region of Drosophila simulans [3].
