Large variation in the ratio of mitochondrial to nuclear mutation rate across animals: implications for genetic diversity and the use of mitochondrial DNA as a molecular …
It is commonly assumed that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) evolves at a faster rate than
nuclear DNA (nuDNA) in animals. This has contributed to the popularity of mtDNA as a …

Analysis of selection in protein-coding sequences accounting for common biases
The evolution of protein-coding genes is usually driven by selective processes, which favor
some evolutionary trajectories over others, optimizing the subsequent protein stability and …

Accurate measurement of the effects of all amino-acid mutations on influenza hemagglutinin
Influenza genes evolve mostly via point mutations, and so knowing the effect of every amino-
acid mutation provides information about evolutionary paths available to the virus. We and …
