Long-Term Persistence of Bi-functionality Contributes to the Robustness of Microbial Life through Exaptation

Modern enzymes are highly optimized biocatalysts that process their substrates with extreme efficiency. Many enzymes catalyze more than one reaction; however, the persistence of such ambiguities, their consequences and evolutionary causes are largely unknown. As a paradigmatic case, we study the his...
