Characterization of the deleted in autism 1 protein family: implications for studying cognitive disorders. by Azhari Aziz, Sean P Harrop, Naomi E Bishop

“…By contrast to DIA1, DIA1R was found exclusively in vertebrates, with an origin coinciding with the whole-genome duplication events occurring early in the vertebrate lineage, and the evolution of the more complex vertebrate nervous system. Strikingly, DIA1R was present in schooling fish but absent in fish that have adopted a more solitary lifestyle. …”
