The action of key factors in protein evolution at high temporal resolution.
BACKGROUND: Protein evolution is particularly shaped by the conservation of the amino acids' physico-chemical properties and the structure of the genetic code. While conservation is the result of negative selection against proteins with reduced functionality, the codon sequences determine the s...
