Most NAIP transcription in colon, spleen, lung, and prostate could be accounted for by the combined activity of all queried promoters, but the contribution of individual paralogues could not be assessed due to their high sequence identity.

We have discovered gene duplication of aspartic protease genes in Strongyloides and identified a pair of paralogues differentially expressed in either the parasitic or the free-living phase of the nematode life-cycle, consistent with an adaptive role for aspartic proteases in the evolution of nematode parasitism.

Given that most of these sequences probably represent true paralogues (see Section 3), the SOX family seems to be significantly more diverse in these two non-bilaterian species than it is in D. melanogaster (8 genes), C. elegans (5 genes) or C. intestinalis (6 genes) (Koopman et al.,
