Specializayion scoring - worked examples  
     

Example 1: Specialization between lactalbumin and lysozyme C. After gene duplication 300 to 400 million years ago, an enzyme lysozyme C gave rise to a gene that currently codes for α-lactalbumin, a regulatory protein expressed only in the lactating mammary gland. Learn how to map the specialization regions that distinguish lactalbumin from lysozyme C onto protein sequence and structure. Create excel spreadsheets and specialization maps in png format.
