“…Fish typically have four AHR genes, products of a tandem gene duplication ( AHR1 and AHR2 ) and paralogs of each of these (designated “a” and “b”), the result of a whole‐genome duplication at the base of the teleost lineage, after its divergence from the lineage leading to tetrapods (Hahn et al., 2006, 2017). The relative roles of each AHR are not yet fully understood, but the AHR2 paralogs appear to mediate many of the toxic and adaptive responses to DLCs and some PAHs (Antkiewicz, Peterson, & Heideman, 2006; Billiard et al., 2006; Clark et al., 2010; Dong, Teraoka, Tsujimoto, Stegeman, & Hiraga, 2004; Goodale et al., 2012; Incardona et al., 2006; Jönsson et al., 2007; Lanham, Prasch, Weina, Peterson, & Heideman, 2011; Prasch et al., 2003; Waits & Nebert, 2011). For some chemicals, however, responses may be mediated by AHR1 (Goodale et al., 2012; Incardona et al., 2006).…”
