…the current models are both consistent with available and new experimental data and offer a number of predictions – notably, through revelation of highly constrained residues (Supplementary Data 9–10) – to guide and visualise structure-function analyses of these unusual sensory receptors.
No experimental evidence of top-down causation links anything except the quantized energy-dependent creation of enzymes, hormones, and receptors to biophysically constrained viral latency and ecological adaptations.

Analyzing the variation of insect OR protein amino acids during evolution revealed a model for transmembrane domain arrangement that is unrelated to GPCRs (Hopf et al., 2015).
Try to refute my model with the latest pseudoscientific nonsense about coevolved amino acids.
