Hardback. How is a gene identified, by its structure or its function? What is the influence of gene expression on natural selection of protein functions, and how is variation in gene expression selected in evolution? Here, the author shows us that the extensiveness of gene sharing and protein multifunctionality offers a way of responding to these questions.
