Evolutionary Walks on Rugged Landscapes

1991-06-01

Abstract excerpt

The rapid evolution of antibody molecules during an immune response enables the immune system to respond efficiently to an immense variety of challenges. To investigate this response, a theory for molecular evolution in biological systems is developed and analyzed. A molecule can be represented as a sequence of Nletters, with each letter being chosen from an alphabet of size a; for protein molecules the alphabet c...
