Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: Diverse studies have shown that correlated mutation (CM) is an important molecular evolutionary process alongside conservation. However, attempts to find the residue pairs that co-evolve under the structural and/or functional constraints are complicated by the fact that a large portion of covariance signals found in multiple sequence alignments arise from correlations due to common ancestry and...
