Adaptive Evolution and Functional Redesign of Core Metabolic Proteins in Snakes
BACKGROUND: Adaptive evolutionary episodes in core metabolic proteins are uncommon, and are even more rarely linked to major macroevolutionary shifts. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We conducted extensive molecular evolutionary analyses on snake mitochondrial proteins and discovered multiple lines...
