2008 journal article
Biochemical and functional evidence of p53 homology is inconsistent with molecular phylogenetics for distant sequences
JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR EVOLUTION, 67(1), 51–67.
author keywords: p53; p63; p73; beta-Sandwich; transcription factor; p731
MeSH headings : Animals; Arthropods / genetics; DNA-Binding Proteins / classification; Evolution, Molecular; Genes, p53; Mollusca / genetics; Nematoda / genetics; Nuclear Proteins / classification; Phylogeny; Sequence Homology, Amino Acid; Tumor Protein p73; Tumor Suppressor Protein p53 / chemistry; Tumor Suppressor Protein p53 / classification; Tumor Suppressor Proteins / classification; Urochordata / genetics
TL;DR:
The study shows that the biochemical and functional evidence of p53 homology for nematodes, arthropods, and protists is inconsistent with their implied phylogenetic relationship within the overall family, and suggests that p63 is a far more appropriate protein for comparison.

2008 journal article
Site-specific evolutionary rates in proteins are better modeled as non-independent and strictly relative
BIOINFORMATICS, 24(19), 2177–2183.
MeSH headings : Algorithms; Animals; Basic-Leucine Zipper Transcription Factors / chemistry; Basic-Leucine Zipper Transcription Factors / genetics; Computational Biology; Databases, Protein; Evolution, Molecular; Genes, myc; Humans; Proteins / chemistry; Proteins / genetics; Sequence Alignment; Tumor Suppressor Protein p53 / chemistry; Tumor Suppressor Protein p53 / genetics
TL;DR:
An algorithm to simultaneously infer the set of n-1 relative rates that parameterize the likelihood of an n-site alignment is described, allowing for the first time coherent simultaneous inference of branch-lengths and site-specific evolutionary rates.

2005 journal article
Sequence signatures and the probabilistic identification of proteins in the Myc-Max-Mad network
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 102(18), 6401–6406.
author keywords: Myc; predictive motif; transcription factor; oncoprotein; molecular evolution
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence / genetics; Basic-Leucine Zipper Transcription Factors; Computational Biology / methods; DNA-Binding Proteins / genetics; Fuzzy Logic; Genetic Variation; Genomics / methods; Helix-Loop-Helix Motifs / genetics; Molecular Sequence Data; Protein Conformation; Proto-Oncogene Proteins c-myc / genetics; Repressor Proteins / genetics; Sequence Alignment; Sequence Homology; Transcription Factors / genetics
TL;DR:
A small set of amino acid sites from the N-terminal portion of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain are described that provide very accurate sequence signatures for the Myc-Max-Mad transcription factor network and three of its member proteins.

2005 journal article
Solving the protein sequence metric problem
PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 102(18), 6395–6400.
author keywords: basic helix-loop-helix; molecular evolution; multivariate statistics; amino acid attributes; factor analysis
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence / genetics; Analysis of Variance; Cluster Analysis; Codon / genetics; Computational Biology / methods; Discriminant Analysis; Genetic Variation; Models, Genetic; Multivariate Analysis; Phylogeny; Protein Conformation; Static Electricity; Statistics as Topic / methods
TL;DR:
Multivariate statistical analyses on almost 500 amino acid attributes are used to produce a small set of highly interpretable numeric patterns of amino acid variability that reflect polarity, secondary structure, molecular volume, codon diversity, and electrostatic charge.
