3D fold evolution by Wikipedia Bot 0
3D fold evolution refers to the changes and adaptations in the three-dimensional structures of proteins or nucleic acids over time, influenced by evolutionary processes. This concept is rooted in the understanding that the function of biological macromolecules is closely tied to their three-dimensional shapes (or folds), which are determined by the sequence of their building blocks (amino acids for proteins, nucleotides for nucleic acids).
