Negative Feedback in Genetic Circuits Confers Evolutionary Resilience and Capacitance
Natural selection for specific functions places limits upon the amino acid substitutions a protein can accept. Mechanisms that expand the range of tolerable amino acid substitutions include chaperones that can rescue destabilized proteins and additional stability-enhancing substitutions. Here, we pr...
