Following The Evolutionary Paths Of Highly Specific Homophilic Adhesion Proteins

2024-03-19

Abstract excerpt

Many adhesion proteins, evolutionarily related through gene duplication, exhibit distinct and precise interaction preferences and affinities crucial for cell patterning. Yet, the evolutionary path by which these proteins, which are highly similar in structure and sequence, acquire new specificity and prevent cross-interactions within their family members remains unknown. To bridge this gap, this study focuses on D...
