Local Packing Density Is the Main Structural Determinant of the Rate of Protein Sequence Evolution at Site Level

Functional and biophysical constraints result in site-dependent patterns of protein sequence variability. It is commonly assumed that the key structural determinant of site-specific rates of evolution is the Relative Solvent Accessibility (RSA). However, a recent study found that amino acid substitu...
