Dissection of Functional Residues in Receptor Activity-Modifying Proteins through Phylogenetic and Statistical Analyses

Type I and type-II functional divergences have been stated to highlight specific residues carrying out differential functions in evolutionary-divergent protein clusters from a single common ancestor. Briefly, type I analysis is based on residue constraints reflecting a gain of function just in one c...
