The Influence of Selection for Protein Stability on dN/dS Estimations

Understanding the relative contributions of various evolutionary processes—purifying selection, neutral drift, and adaptation—is fundamental to evolutionary biology. A common metric to distinguish these processes is the ratio of nonsynonymous to synonymous substitutions (i.e., dN/dS) interpreted fro...
