Abstract: | In this multi-author issue several aspects of the ribonuclease A superfamily are reviewed. This superfamily can be subdivided
in a number of mammalian and other vertebrate ribonuclease families. In the introduction chapter the titles of the other contributions
are presented. There is little uniformity in the nomenclature of ribonucleases, caused in part by gene duplications, which
have occurred independently in several mammalian lineages, and which are nice examples for explaining orthology and paralogy
in molecular evolution. |
