Role of Early PET/CT Imaging with 68Ga-PSMA in Staging and Restaging of Prostate Cancer.

abstract：:Concerted evolution is often observed in multigene families such as the CEA gene family. As a result, sequence similarity of paralogous genes is significantly higher than expected from their evolutionary distance. Gene conversion, a "copy paste" DNA repair mechanism that transfers sequences from one gene to another an...
