Extracting the phylogenetic dimension of coevolution reveals hidden functional signal

2020-09-25

Abstract excerpt

Despite the structural and functional information contained in the statistical coupling between pairs of residues in a protein, coevolution associated with function is often obscured by artifactual signals such as genetic drift, which shapes a protein’s phylogenetic history and gives rise to concurrent variation between protein sequences that is not driven by selection for function. Here, we introduce a method for...
