A calibrated chronology of biochemistry reveals a stem line of descent responsible for planetary biodiversity

A calibrated chronology of biochemistry reveals a stem line of descent responsible for planetary biodiversity

Time-calibrated phylogenomic trees of protein domain structure produce powerful chronologies describing the evolution of biochemistry and life. These timetrees are built from a genomic census of millions of encoded proteins using models of nested accumulation of molecules in evolving proteomes. Here...
