Expansion of the protein repertoire in newly explored environments: human gut microbiome specific protein families.
The microbes that inhabit particular environments must be able to perform molecular functions that provide them with a competitive advantage to thrive in those environments. As most molecular functions are performed by proteins and are conserved between related proteins, we can expect that organisms...
