Essential Genes Embody Increased Mutational Robustness to Compensate for the Lack of Backup Genetic Redundancy

Genetic robustness is a hallmark of cells, occurring through many mechanisms and at many levels. Essential genes lack the common robustness mechanism of genetic redundancy (i.e., existing alongside other genes with the same function), and thus appear at first glance to leave cells highly vulnerable...
