Bursts of amino acid replacements in protein evolution


Bursts of amino acid replacements in protein evolution is a scholarly work by Anastasia V Stolyarova and Georgy Bazykin, published in 2019 in ''Royal Society Open Science''. The main subjects of the publication include glossary of graph theory terms, evolutionary biology, rate of evolution, population genetics, amino acid, biology, Directional selection, evolutionary dynamics, selection (genetic algorithm), molecular evolution, amino acid replacement, and RNA sequencing. The authors detect six salient bursts of evolution of individual proteins during such short time periods, each involving between six and 38 amino acid substitutions.
