Mutational Pathways and Trade-Offs Between HisA and TrpF Functions: Implications for Evolution via Gene Duplication and Divergence
When a new activity evolves by changes in a pre-existing enzyme this is likely to reduce the original activity, generating a functional trade-off. The properties of this trade-off will affect the continued evolution of both functions. If the trade-off is strong, gene duplication and subsequent diver...
