Proteome-Wide Analysis of Functional Divergence in Bacteria: Exploring a Host of Ecological Adaptations
Functional divergence is the process by which new genes and functions originate through the modification of existing ones. Both genetic and environmental factors influence the evolution of new functions, including gene duplication or changes in the ecological requirements of an organism. Novel funct...
