Abstract excerpt
To understand the molecular evolution of functional diversity in protein families, we comprehensively investigated the consequences of all possible mutation combinations separating two peptide-binding domains with highly divergent specificities. We analyzed the Erbin PDZ domain (Erbin-PDZ), which exhibits canonical type I specificity, and a synthetic Erbin-PDZ variant (E-14) that differs at six positions and...
