EXPANDED GENE TOOLKIT. "At least part of the potential for developmental evolution during the Cambrian may therefore simply stem from the expansion of the repertoire of regulatory genes in the metazoan ancestor. An increase in regulatory proteins (that can act alone or in combinations) translates into a much bigger increase in possible regulatory network configurations (“topologies”)." https://lnkd.in/dTKCkih View in LinkedIn
