摘要: Accumulating evidence indicates that gene order in eukaryotic genomes is not completely random and genes with similar expression levels tend to be clustered within the same genomic neighborhoods. The mechanism behind these coexpression clusters as yet unclear. In this article, plausible biochemical, genetic, evolutionary, technological determinants of pattern are briefly reviewed.
