Frequent lineage-specific substitution rate changes support an episodic model for protein evolution

2020-08-25

Abstract excerpt

Since the inception of the molecular clock model for sequence evolution, the investigation of protein divergence has revolved around the question of a more or less constant rate of overall sequence information change. Although anomalies in clock-like divergence are described for some proteins, nowadays, the assumption of a constant decay rate for a given protein family is taken as the null model for protein evolut...
