Mechanisms for the Evolution of a Derived Function in the Ancestral Glucocorticoid Receptor

Understanding the genetic, structural, and biophysical mechanisms that caused protein functions to evolve is a central goal of molecular evolutionary studies. Ancestral sequence reconstruction (ASR) offers an experimental approach to these questions. Here we use ASR to shed light on the earliest fun...
