Abstract excerpt
The architecture of present-day protein interaction networks depends on how protein associations evolved. Here, we explore how and why evolution-related mutations influence protein structure to promote protein associations, and thereby network development. We specifically address two questions: (i) How can protein folds remain conserved while proteins accommodate new binding partnerships as genes duplicate? (ii)...
