Characterization of an almost full-length cDNA coding for human blood coagulation factor X.

abstract：:Covariance analysis of protein sequence alignments uses coevolving pairs of sequence positions to predict features of protein structure and function. However, current methods ignore the phylogenetic relationships between sequences, potentially corrupting the identification of covarying positions. Here, we use random m...
