Evolutionary fates within a microbial population highlight an essential role for protein folding during natural selection
The fitness function developed in this thesis directly links the physicochemical properties of an enzyme to evolutionary fates in a quantitative and predictive manner through a comparative study of empirical and simulated data. The success or failure of organisms during evolution is dictated by chan...
