Primate protein-ligand interfaces exhibit significant conservation and unveil human-specific evolutionary drivers.
Despite the vast phenotypic differences observed across primates, their protein products are largely similar to each other at the sequence level. We hypothesized that, since proteins accomplish all their functions via interactions with other molecules, alterations in the sites that participate in th...
