    • Molecular mechanisms of adaptation emerging from the physics and evolution of nucleic acids and proteins 

      Goncearenco, Alexander; Ma, Binguang; Berezovsky, Igor (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)
      DNA, RNA and proteins are major biological macromolecules that coevolve and adapt to environments as components of one highly interconnected system. We explore here sequence/structure determinants of mechanisms of adaptation ...
