Top: An ancestral gene duplication produces two paralogs (histone H1.1 and 1.2). A speciation event produces orthologs in the two daughter species (human and chimpanzee). Bottom: in a separate species , a gene has a similar function (histone-like nucleoid-structuring protein) but has a separate evolutionary origin and so is an analog.
The paralogs of EVA1C are EVA1A (Eva-1 Homolog A) and EVA1B (Eva-1 Homolog B). [17] [18] The thorny skate (Amblyraja radiata) was found to be the most distant ortholog in EVA1A, EVA1B, and EVA1C. [14] [19] [20] The divergence time of humans and the thorny skate is 464 million years ago. [16]
The term "ortholog" was coined in 1970 by the molecular evolutionist Walter Fitch. [41] Homologous sequences are paralogous if they were created by a duplication event within the genome. For gene duplication events, if a gene in an organism is duplicated, the two copies are paralogous. They can shape the structure of whole genomes and thus ...
Italics are not necessary in gene catalogs. Protein designations are the same as the gene symbol except that they are not italicised. Like the gene symbol, they are in all caps because human (human-specific or human homolog). mRNAs and cDNAs use the same formatting conventions as the gene symbol. [5]
Golgi apparatus membrane protein TVP23 homolog B is a protein encoded by the gene TVP23B. This gene has two paralog in the human genome , TVP23C, which is located on chromosome 17 at 17p12, and TVP23A , which is located on chromosome 16.

A speciation event produces orthologs in the two daughter species (human and chimpanzee). Bottom: in a separate species ( E. coli ), an gene has a similar function ( histone-like nucleoid-structuring protein ) but has a separate evolutionary origin and so is an analog .
