Structure, function and evolution of multidomain proteins
Proteins are composed of evolutionary units called domains; the majority of proteins consist
of at least two domains. These domains and nature of their interactions determine the …

Evolution of the protein repertoire
Most proteins have been formed by gene duplication, recombination, and divergence.
Proteins of known structure can be matched to about 50% of genome sequences, and these …
