Community transcriptomics reveals universal patterns of protein sequence conservation in natural microbial communities

Background Combined metagenomic and metatranscriptomic datasets make it possible to study the molecular evolution of diverse microbial species recovered from their native habitats. The link between gene expression level and sequence conservation was examined using shotgun pyrosequencing of microb...
