🎲 Our paper on the genetics, energetics, and allostery in proteins with randomized cores and surfaces is out today @science.org!
🧬 By charting a protein’s sequence universe, we could rationalize which versions were kept through evolution – and why many stable ones were not.

“Nothing is less real than realism. Details are confusing. It is only by selection, by elimination, by emphasis, that we get at the real meaning of things.”
