Cryo-EM structures unexpectedly show that there are two binding sites for RAB5, with the VPS15 site being the most evolutionarily ancient site, which is essential for endocytic sorting.
Empirical substitution matrices from experimental measurements on 31,614 variants accurately predict cellular protein abundance changes using only amino-acid substitution and whether the site is buried or exposed.
