| Description | The conserved protein sequence motifs present in all prokaryotic proteomes, omnipresent motifs, presumably, correspond to the earliest proteins of the Last Universal Cellular Ancestor, from which all the proteomes have descended. Future analysis of less conserved sequence motifs may reveal at what degree of conservation (stage of evolution) the metabolic enzymes could have entered the scene. |
