IGF-binding proteins: why do they exist and why are there so many?
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are key growth-promoting peptides that act as both
endocrine hormones and autocrine/paracrine growth factors. In the bloodstream and in local …

A well-constrained estimate for the timing of the salmonid whole genome duplication reveals major decoupling from species diversification
Whole genome duplication (WGD) is often considered to be mechanistically associated with
species diversification. Such ideas have been anecdotally attached to a WGD at the stem of …
