“…Next, we examined the presence of bidirectional promoters among the identified promoters. We consider a promoter as bidirectional if it is shared between two genes which are in opposite orientation and the promoter region either overlaps with the first exon of the transcripts or is within À1 kb of known TSS as previously described (40). We identified 1093, 1029, 989, 1125 and 852 bidirectional promoters in brain, kidney, liver, lung and spleen, respectively.…”

“…The preference for closely located head-to-head gene pairs appears to be specific to the mammalian lineage. However, the genes involved are not enriched in mammal-specific genes, suggesting that gene rearrangement per se may provide new regulatory configurations and opportunities for phenotypic novelties (Koyanagi et al 2005). In yeast, adaptive evolution in the relative orientation of adjacent genes could not be proven, despite numerous gene losses following recurrent wholegenome duplications (Byrnes et al 2006).…”

“…Os genes estão ordenados e orientados na direção da replicação, para evitar a colisão entre as enzimas DNA e RNA polimerases, e múltiplos genes estão organizados em operons e são co-transcritos num mRNA policistrônico (Koyanagi, et al, 2005).…”

“…Esta forma de organização no genoma, de genes transcritos divergentes, sugere que sua expressão possa ser co-regulada (Trinklein et al, 2004) e seu estudo é de grande interesse, pois pode revelar como a transcrição de diferentes genes é coordenada (Koyanagi et al, 2005). Ambos os genes seriam transcritos a partir de uma região intergênica de 647 pb.…”
