DIVERGE v4: A Platform for Large-Scale Analysis of Functional Divergence Across Multi-Gene Families.
Article in Molecular biology and evolution, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Gene duplication and subsequent divergence are fundamental drivers in the evolution of novel gene functions. The DIVERGE software, widely utilized for identifying amino acid residues critical to functional shifts between protein subfamilies, has been substantially upgraded to version 4 to address modern bioinformatics challenges. This major release features a modular Python package for enhanced workflow integration and a novel algorithm for scalable analysis of large gene families. Notably, we introduce DIVERGE-Chat, pioneering the application of a conversational artificial intelligence (AI) agent in the field of functional divergence, enabling intuitive, code-free exploration (https://pgx.zju.edu.cn/diverge). We have also developed a complementary interactive online web server that allows users to upload local files for interactive analysis, facilitating more flexible analysis. Furthermore, we curated phylogenetic data for 4,540 human gene families and conducted functional divergence analyses, generating a comprehensive resource accessible online. Collectively, these advancements significantly improve the accuracy, scalability, usability, and integration capabilities of functional divergence analysis, empowering broader research into protein evolution, functional specificity, and biomedical applications.
