The TyrA family of aromatic-pathway dehydrogenases in phylogenetic context

Jian Song, Carol A Bonner, Murray Wolinsky, Roy A Jensen BMC Biology 2005, 3:13 (12 May 2005)

An extensive phylogeny of the TyrA dehydrogenase family reveals a pattern of narrowing substrate specificity and a number of evolutionary "jumps" due to fusion with aromatic pathway genes, guiding the way for evolutionary analyses of other metabolic pathways.
