- Title
Neuroscience: Genes and human brain evolution.
- Authors
Geschwind, Daniel H.; Konopka, Genevieve
- Abstract
The article focuses on the evolutionary history and function of the human gene SLIT-ROBO Rho GTPase-activating protein 2 (SRGAP2) described by M. Y. Dennis and colleagues and C. Charrier and colleagues. It says that the four non-identical copies of SRGAP2 carried by humans at different locations on chromosome 1 were showed by the authors. Moreover, the functional context to the immaturity of the developing human brain, which is called as neaten was also given by the researchers.
