Abstract
Recent experiments on the deamidation of glutaminyl and asparaginyl residues in peptides and proteins support the hypothesis that these residues may serve as molecular clocks that control biological processes. A hypothesis is now offered that suggests that these molecular clocks are set by rejection or accumulation of appropriate sequences of residues including a glutaminyl or asparaginyl residue during evolution.Entities:
