The cellular substrate of evolutionary novelty Joseph Parker and Matt Pennell propose gene expression programs — sets of co-expressed transcripts that collectively encode cellular subfunctions — as fundamental entities from which novel organismal ...

Useful perspective incorporating GRNs & gene modules into theory of evolutionary novelty

Parker & Pennell emphasise gene modules, not individual genes, as fundamental units of phenotypic evolution

Provides a needed evolutionary lens for analysing scRNAseq & cell types
