Interpreting sequence–structure relationships in Asgard archaea

This reasoning chain explains why some Asgard archaeal protein families exhibit weak correlation between sequence and structure diversity, while others show near-perfect conservation or co-diversification, integrating evidence for diverse evolutionary strategies.
