Abstract excerpt
It is shown that there are two types of conserved residues in evolutionary and functionally related proteins whose sequences have been well diverged in evolution. The first group consists of residues forming the active center, while the second (first established in this work) has nothing to do with function and therefore should be related to protein structure and/or protein folding. The lattter group consists of...
