Gene connectivity and enzyme evolution in the human metabolic network

Abstract Background Determining the factors involved in the likelihood of a gene being under adaptive selection is still a challenging goal in Evolutionary Biology. Here, we perform an evolutionary analysis of the human metabolic genes to explore the associations between network structure and the pr...
