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 ...

English: Top: An ancestral gene duplicates to produce two paralogs (Genes A and B). A speciation event produces orthologs in the two daughter species. Bottom: in a separate species, an unrelated gene has a similar function (Gene C) but has a separate evolutionary origin and so is an analog.
