Substitution of transcription factor families in the network is a way changes affecting evolution occur in the regulatory gene network for heart development that is conserved from Drosophila to mammals. Mutations in the cis-element, mutation in cis-elements that allow it to bind to different transcription factors, repositioning of cis-elements, and insertion or deletion of cis-elements are also ways changes affecting evolution occur in the regulatory gene network for heart development that is conserved from Drosophila to mammals.
