Emergence Biases in Molecular Evolution.

Abstract excerpt

Biases in molecular evolution can significantly influence evolutionary trajectories. They have been described in a variety of contexts, such as development and mutation, but not for the emergence of new and observable molecular activities. Here, we formalize the term "emergence bias" as the molecular predisposition that, upon mutation, biases a genetic sequence toward or against manifesting new or latent...
